The Oppressed Peoples of The Imperial Caninese Empire is a huge, safe nation, ruled by Emperor Zymaamkh Y'kemezakh with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 876 million Caninese 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Khanisia'dakida. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.7%.
The powerhouse Caninese economy, worth 83.5 trillion Claws a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 95,374 Claws, with the richest citizens earning 7.6 times as much as the poorest.
The government seizes all major gold finds, frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security, former arsonists can be found on local fire brigades, and more than one company makes the board game Monopoly. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Imperial Caninese Empire's national animal is the Canine.
The Imperial Caninese Empire is ranked 32,981st in the world and 1,774th in Lazarus for Most Conservative, scoring 80.33 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
