The Democratic State of Wechaiyae is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Veranda Slocum with a fair hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-working, democratic population of 5.309 billion Wechaiyaeans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rielia. The average income tax rate is 39.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Wechaiyaean economy, worth 590 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 111,283 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new 'Who Wants To Be A Politician' election debate auditions are more popular than the debates themselves, chickens frolic freely on swings and roundabouts in Rielia's playgrounds, short shrift is being given to applications for political asylum from illegal immigrants, and RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Wechaiyae's national animal is the Blue Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is atheism.

Wechaiyae is ranked 55,391st in the world and 3,305th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 72.79 law-abiding acts per hour.
