The Republic of Whitearmor is a colossal, genial nation, remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 2.834 billion Whitearmorians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.3%.

The all-consuming Whitearmorian economy, worth 295 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,275 pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 364,600 per year while the poor average 21,673, a ratio of 16.8 to 1.

The judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, polygamy is legal, Leader's luxurious new home has been designated as a protected cultural heritage site, and victims of limb-mauling industrial accidents are told to keep working with their remaining hand. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Whitearmor's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Whitearmor is ranked 52,742nd in the world and 2nd in DatPiff for Most Developed, scoring 76.68 on the Human Development Index.
