The Technocratic Empire of Westcentre is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Emperor Chengzong of Anxi with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, complete lack of prisons, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 3.851 billion Westcentreans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Suìyè. The average income tax rate is 91.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Westcentrean economy, worth 496 trillion Anxi Yuan a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 128,959 Anxi Yuan, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Emperor Chengzong of Anxi's new door-knocking campaign has the sweet taste of success, singles on the dating scene no longer worry about looking their age, young children are learning advanced physics to scientifically disprove the existence of Santa Claus, and every workday begins with group therapy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Westcentre's national animal is the Heavenly Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is State-Mandated Confucianism.

Westcentre is ranked 137,651st in the world and 10th in East Asia for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 1,668.41 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
