The People's Republic of Washoia is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, devout population of 619 million Washoians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tahoe. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Washoian economy, worth 38.8 trillion Washoian Coins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 62,650 Washoian Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Purported secret military bases are dismissed by Leader to be highly-advanced toilet factories, Deer are considered a delicacy, it is popularly believed that "cheese every day keeps disaster away", and military units are often seen arguing over which one is truly favored by the gods. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Washoia's national animal is the Deer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Washoia is ranked 260,021^st in the world and 9,793^rd in Lazarus for Most Patriotic, with 1.3 flags saluted per person per day.
