“Terra Incognita”

The Anarcho-Capitalist Empire of Whereisthatistan is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by ADemocraticallyElectedDictator with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5.269 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals is effectively ruled by the Department of Defence, with areas such as Social Equality and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Coaster Land and Gun Range. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

The Whereisthatistan Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, a niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up, and billions of Kalashnikovs are being blown on orbital weapons development. Crime is crippling. Whereisthatistan's national animal is the Opossum, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Kalashnikov.

Whereisthatistan is ranked 47th in the region and 2,272nd in the world for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry.
