The United Socialist States of War Dogs IV is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Dog o'War with an even hand, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, infamous sell-swords, and lack of airports. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 11.013 billion War Dogs have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of WD Central. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.
The frighteningly efficient War Dog economy, worth a remarkable 4,159 trillion gold bars 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 Information Technology, Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. 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 377,644 gold bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Parking's carefree without parking car fees, confused-looking pigeons slide gently off frictionless window ledges, small patches of desolate land across the world are part of War Dog sovereign territory, and high-tech infantry rifles automatically reload when the soldier shoots outside the screen of their helmet HUD. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. War Dogs IV's national animal is the Dog, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Violetism.
War Dogs IV is ranked 4,962nd in the world and 6th in The Wellspring for Lowest Crime Rates, with 116.75 law-abiding acts per hour.
