The People's Republic of Wolfsgrad is a large, orderly nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 74 million Wolves are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 72.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Wolf economy, worth 2.83 trillion Wolf-Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 38,289 Wolf-Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
High-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, pregnant women make easy targets, new arrivals are asked the location of the Minister of the Interior's birthmark, and daisy chain gangs plant flowers and pick up litter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wolfsgrad's national animal is the Arctic Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Wolfsgrad is ranked 223,865th in the world and 992nd in Europeia for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -5.1 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
