The Tang Clan of Wu is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by RZA with a fair hand, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, public floggings, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 24.326 billion Wu are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shaolin City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Wu economy, worth a remarkable 3,896 trillion CREAMS a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 160,176 CREAMS, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,481,832 per year while the poor average 1,677, a ratio of 883 to 1.

The army's use of chemical weapons leaves a bad taste in the mouth, epileptic patients switch their medications to whichever has a 'buy one get one free' offer, city budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty, and open-casket funerals are avoided at all cost. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Wu's national animal is the Killah bee, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is WU.

Wu is ranked 345,678th in the world and 13th in Eladen for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 0.77 Effective Tax Rate.
