The Fabulously Modest Kingdom of Wackiest is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by King Phil with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful population of 32.419 billion Wackistians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Policy, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Chippenham. The average income tax rate is 76.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Wackistian economy, worth a remarkable 4,862 trillion Wackiest-Marks a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Gambling. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 149,974 Wackiest-Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

This year's comedy award has left mothers-in-law seething, video evidence of cruel animal experiments tends to be of poor quality, W-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Wackiest's national animal is the Undead, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Church of The Helix.

Wackiest is ranked 10,164^th in the world and 157^th in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 100.77 law-abiding acts per hour.
