The Kingdom of Worshipia is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, infamous sell-swords, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.366 billion Worshipians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Forscratch. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 46.1%.
The large but inefficient Worshipian economy, worth 134 trillion Worths a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 56,756 Worths, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.
Scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new, lending firms are subject to strict government regulations, creating cardboard imitations of missiles is a new top-secret military project, and loudmouthed journalists are given the chop. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Worshipia's national animal is the Owl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Worshipia is ranked 219,777th in the world and 9,807th in Lazarus for Highest Poor Incomes, with 17,507.11 Standard Monetary Units.
