The Free Lawn of Weedwhackers is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Their Excellency Pickles with a fair hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, ban on automobiles, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 1.896 billion Trimmerdees are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Great Mower's Lawn. The average income tax rate is 93.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Trimmerdooly economy, worth 194 trillion social lubricants a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 102,650 social lubricants, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, confessions don't count if suffixed with "izzle", political satirists and late night comedians weep as the government begins cleaning up its act, and rioting during the nation's hosting of ORDER caused one million social lubricants of property damage. Crime is totally unknown. Weedwhackers's national animal is the confused bovine, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Voluntary Great Mowism.

Weedwhackers is ranked 48,270th in the world and 40th in Cape of Good Hope for Lowest Crime Rates, with 74.79 law-abiding acts per hour.
