The Corporate Nation of Imperialistic States of Howa is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Omni Consumer Corp with an even hand, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, anti-smoking policies, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 22.408 billion Imperialis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Imperial city. The average income tax rate is 4.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Imperial economy, worth a remarkable 8,934 trillion Imperials a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 398,729 Imperials, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are regularly arrested in queues for 'loitering', a politician who is photographed pulling a funny face while eating can say goodbye to their credibility, the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The The Imperial City Times is sold out, and unstable couples are known to break up over which one gets parental leave. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Imperialistic States of Howa's national animal is the Imperial Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Consumerism.

Imperialistic States of Howa is ranked 4,789^th in the world and 247^th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 117.49 law-abiding acts per hour.
