The Toxic Garbage Island of Impenyer is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by President Eden with an iron fist, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 12.33 billion are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Capital Wasteland. The average income tax rate is 96%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Uranium Mining and Woodchip Exports.

A survey of the nation's rivers and children has shown that pesticide levels are at an all-time regional high, students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak, poets and writers are regularly rounded up and shot for entertainment, and midnight pizza breaks are common among the work-from-home population. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Impenyer's national animal is the Deathclaw, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Indifferent Agnosticism, and its currency is the Sarsaparilla Cap.

Impenyer is ranked 4,780th in The North Pacific and 94,937th in the world for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring -503 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
