The Empire of Black Wizard is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Leader with an iron fist, and renowned for its lack of airports, sprawling nuclear power plants, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 24.934 billion Black Wizardians 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, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Black Wizard City. The average income tax rate is 78.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Black Wizardian economy, worth a remarkable 5,880 trillion Silvers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 235,830 Silvers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Police nightsticks see use all day long, strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins, children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces, and collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Black Wizard's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is a major religion.

Black Wizard is ranked 330,324^th in the world and 3^rd in New Landya for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -26.56 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
