The People's Republic of Weeniestan is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Head of State Richard D Cox with a fair hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.212 billion Weenies 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ballston. The average income tax rate is 74.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Weenish economy, worth 261 trillion Hairs a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 81,426 Hairs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents, the nation's forests are full of treasure hunters in military-grade survival gear, arguments about toilet seats being left up or down get surprisingly heated, and the fire protection service is wholly government-funded. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Weeniestan's national animal is the Cyclopean Ball Python, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Weeniestan is ranked 2,917^th in the world and 128^th in Lazarus for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 13,947.86 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
