The Dominion of Nuwisha is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Lord Ptah with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate, cheerful population of 12.863 billion Nuwishans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Nuwishan economy, worth a remarkable 2,418 trillion Shins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 188,008 Shins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military is slashing spending on conventional arms and diverting it to spending on prosthetic arms, public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers, the volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, and the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Nuwisha's national animal is the Coyote, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nuwisha is ranked 894^th in the world and 15^th in Osiris for Highest Food Quality, scoring 371.9 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
