The Sultanate of Cwh151 is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, soft-spoken computers, and ritual sacrifices. The cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.909 billion Cwh151ians 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, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 72.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Cwh151ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,127 trillion tala a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 190,740 tala, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Schoolchildren must pass a six-month Ethics and Safety Committee Assessment before they are allowed to mix baking soda and vinegar, in court almost every witness is a hostile witness, shoppers have literally had their hands full since plastic bags were banned, and baby dolls thrown in the trash are a leading cause of panic attacks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cwh151's national animal is the grasshopper, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cwh151 is ranked 11,478th in the world and 460th in Crestwood Heights for Lowest Crime Rates, with 104.14 law-abiding acts per hour.
