The Republic of WayPointe is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, frequent executions, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.757 billion WayPointeans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 25.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The WayPointean economy, worth 90.5 trillion rubles a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,532 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The new "Bloodbath" orange tree autonomously seeks and destroys independent orchards, all gamers have been drafted into the military despite their lack of upper body strength, lonely people are supposed to be cheered up by the many parties that they are never invited to, and weird kids who eat bugs are breaking the law. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. WayPointe's national animal is the crocodile, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

WayPointe is ranked 224,772nd in the world and 8th in The Great Universe for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 207.57 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
