The Imperial Galactic Theocracy of Wardrop is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by General Wardrop with an iron fist, and notable for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.399 billion Wardroppians 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wardrop. The average income tax rate is 99.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Wardropian economy, worth a remarkable 4,469 trillion Imperial Wardroppian Credits 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 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 amazing 290,263 Imperial Wardroppian Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The term cold case has taken on a very literal meaning, international trade can be a pain to deal with, vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction, and Holy Church of Wardrop now admits men and women into its clergy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wardrop's national animal is the Wardroppian War Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Holy Church of Wardrop.

Wardrop is ranked 271,398^th in the world and 148^th in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Safest, scoring 7.15 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
