The Sun Giants of Wattle Glen is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by The Corporation with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, keen interest in outer space, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 17.826 billion Wattle Glenians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Victoria. The average income tax rate is 31.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Wattle Glenian economy, worth 546 trillion Wattles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 30,646 Wattles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks, forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, sex offenders find themselves cut off from the ability to repeat their crimes, and The Corporation has been known to threaten dissenting citizens with a machine gun at press conferences. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Wattle Glen's national animal is the Devil.

Wattle Glen is ranked 98,367th in the world and 3rd in The Watchtower for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,060.7 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
