The Sultanate of Industry Arms Manufacturing is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, enslaved workforce, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.915 billion Arms Manufacturers are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Armed economy, worth a remarkable 1,039 trillion weapons a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 150,362 weapons, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 883,942 per year while the poor average 11,919, a ratio of 74.2 to 1.

Children often kick falcons for amusement, parties that are too noisy are broken up to prevent disturbing wildlife, the nation's "surprisingly chill" military is renowned for its horrendous war crimes, and it's best to say "yes" if the arbiter asks "what are you, a moron?". Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Industry Arms Manufacturing's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Industry Arms Manufacturing is ranked 89,132nd in the world and 4,072nd in Lazarus for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 3,519.65 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
