The Community of Pwazland is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its deadly medical pandemics, digital currency, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 6.65 billion Pwazlandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.2%.

The all-consuming Pwazlandian economy, worth 638 trillion yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,077 yen, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 284,827 per year while the poor average 25,440, a ratio of 11.2 to 1.

Postcards from Pwazlandian driving test centres are popular souvenirs, the nation is in perpetual campaign mode, when the air force says "Black Hawk Down" they mean the feathers of the Pwazlandian dark-plume goshawk, and soldiers with colourful mohawks make themselves perfect targets for snipers. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Pwazland's national animal is the hippo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pwazland is ranked 287,228th in the world and 1,486th in Jihad Army of the Emperor for Lowest Crime Rates, with 36.33 law-abiding acts per hour.
