The Allied States of Webland is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Steven with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, digital currency, and public floggings. The hard-nosed population of 8.344 billion Weblandians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Leeds. The average income tax rate is 13.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Weblandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,280 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 153,500 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leeds has restaurants serving every meat from aardvark to zebra, older ladies are inundated with offers to help them cross the road, citizens are less concerned with policy and more concerned with whether politicians "call 'em like they see 'em", and journalists giggle uncontrollably while reporting the nation's drug bonfires. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Webland's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Webland is ranked 120,342nd in the world and 947th in the West Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,757.35 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
