The Republic of Firebending Wymatha is a colossal, genial nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, enslaved workforce, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, devout population of 7.806 billion Firebending Wymathans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 70.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Firebending Wymathan economy, worth 801 trillion Scarabs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,617 Scarabs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", gun ownership is compulsory, the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, and childhood friends of Leader are living it large abroad at the taxpayers' expense. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Firebending Wymatha's national animal is the Werepig, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Firebending Wymatha is ranked 194,910^th in the world and 7,764^th in Osiris for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -3.16 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
