The Indomitable Dominions of Joey Wu Empire is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Supreme Leader Wu with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, sprawling nuclear power plants, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 19.537 billion Child of Wus are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order and Healthcare are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dragon's Den. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Wuan economy, worth a remarkable 8,542 trillion Equations 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 amazing 437,227 Equations, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

A government program is underway to revitalize Joey Wu Empire's beaches, nations across the world are quick to praise Supreme Leader Wu's good looks and intellectual prowess, military instructors tire of being asked for another bedtime story by seven-year-old conscripts, and the police are tightening their grip on alcohol smugglers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Joey Wu Empire's national animal is the Basilisk, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Wu Worship.

Joey Wu Empire is ranked 272,093rd in the world and 10,440th in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 8,744.55 Standard Monetary Units.
