The Kingdom of Woreyland is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Minister Jacob Lewis with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.656 billion Woreylandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zunego City. The average income tax rate is 72.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Woreylandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,117 trillion Woreys a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 167,968 Woreys, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Exports are stamped with "made by the invisible hand you commies", people are turning themselves into worm food, no animal is considered endangered if there's another that looks kind of like it, and politicians always seem to take two steps forward then three steps back. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Woreyland's national animal is the Woreylandian Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Woreylim.

Woreyland is ranked 48,280th in the world and 563rd in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 152.54 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
