The Wolf republic of Plot is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, ban on automobiles, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.342 billion Plotians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 78.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Plotian economy, worth 663 trillion Kolis 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 a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, 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 impressive 152,817 Kolis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Among slaves 'bastard' is an honorific rather than an insult, TV coverage of music festivals consists mostly of backstage interviews, top-shelf magazines feature risqué centrefold spreads of ladies' wrists, and young children are learning advanced physics to scientifically disprove the existence of Santa Claus. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Plot's national animal is the Yui, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Plot is ranked 201,720^th in the world and 274^th in TNP Wolf Farmland for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -3.35 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
