The Christian Empire of Wangoe is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Clovis with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, free-roaming dinosaurs, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful, devout population of 16.674 billion Wangoens enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sardosa. The average income tax rate is 85.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Wangoean economy, worth a remarkable 3,029 trillion Aureuses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 181,690 Aureuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Treason is relative, Emperor Clovis's media campaigns take a hiatus around exam week, offering a builder a cup of tea is a legal minefield, and heartfelt sentiments are mercilessly marketed by a million-Aureus treacle machine. Crime is totally unknown. Wangoe's national animal is the Golden eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Orthodox Catholic.

Wangoe is ranked 3,460^th in the world and 85^th in Europe for Nicest Citizens, with 55.34 average smiles per day.
