Location: The Alliance of Dictators

Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Empire of Waldorfia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Wafles with an iron fist, and notable for its restrictive gun laws. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.91 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 government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Waldorfia City. The average income tax rate is 96%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

A government program is underway to revitalize Waldorfia's beaches, prisons are crowded with possible terrorist suspects, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Waldorfia's national animal is the White Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is a major religion, and its currency is the Waldorf.

Waldorfia is ranked 32nd in The Alliance of Dictators and 4,675th in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring 27 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
