The WAKI-0419X of OIS Wakizashi is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Avakael with an iron fist, and remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, keen interest in outer space, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.159 billion OIS Wakizashians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of OIS-0419. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45.3%.

The frighteningly efficient OIS Wakizashian economy, worth 268 trillion Halicarnassuses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,286 Halicarnassuses, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

Candlelit dinners are less romantic with a flickering LED, the "feminist protest" defence is increasingly common for cases of armed robbery, eminent domain has been abolished, and economists claim no news is good news. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. OIS Wakizashi's national animal is the White Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cruor.

OIS Wakizashi is ranked 47,418th in the world and 163rd in Ordo Imperialia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 4,831.16 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
