The Empire of War Dogs CCCLXXI is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Dog O'War with an iron fist, and notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, unlimited-speed roads, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.542 billion War Dogs 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of WD Central. The average income tax rate is 82.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Canine economy, worth 619 trillion Gold Bars 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Retail, Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. 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 174,808 Gold Bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Bike rage is all the rage, getting an infected tattoo is considered a rite of passage in War Dogs CCCLXXI, the thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions, and the most penniless demographics have by far the highest number of researchers per capita. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. War Dogs CCCLXXI's national animal is the dog, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Canis Majorism.

War Dogs CCCLXXI is ranked 43,470^th in the world and 544^th in Realm of Dogs for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 5,656.38 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
