The Holy Empire of New Wraithia

“Roma invicta”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Holy Empire of New Wraithia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Imperatrix Tytiana Palatina with an iron fist, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.851 billion Wraithians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The relatively small, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Roma. The average income tax rate is 31.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Wraithian economy, worth 638 trillion Denariis 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 a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 impressive 109,132 Denariis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Court TV ratings have skyrocketed now that executions are filmed on location, Wraithian athletes are close to breaking the 2 minute mile and the 16 meter long jump, gift baskets often contain working nukes, and attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. New Wraithia's national animal is the Aquila, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

New Wraithia is ranked 38,382^nd in the world and 84^th in Anteria for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,503.28 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
