The Celestial Empire of Shanyang is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Huangdi with an iron fist, and notable for its aversion to nipples, enslaved workforce, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.346 billion Celestials 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Administration, and Industry are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shanyang. The average income tax rate is 99.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Shanyangian economy, worth a remarkable 5,695 trillion Nakfas 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Tourism. 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 371,158 Nakfas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,227,208 per year while the poor average 83,915, a ratio of 14.6 to 1.

Young people pass around flash drives filled with illegal music, being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, military information leaks are **REDACTED** by **REDACTED** in **REDACTED**, and Shanyang isn't what it used to be. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Shanyang's national animal is the Heavenly Catfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Tianism.

Shanyang is ranked 12,360th in the world and 14th in The Alliance of Dictators for Most Stationary, with 2,024.42628769968 days.
