The Constitutional Republic of Wersh is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Hallon with an even hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, infamous sell-swords, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 9.906 billion Wershians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corlabelm. The average income tax rate is 74.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Wershian economy, worth a remarkable 1,784 trillion Houers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 180,149 Houers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Sheep-like political loyalists repeat the mantra "one wheel bad, three wheels good", animated characters are allowed to stab each other but not hold hands, cheese lovers have a case of the bleus, and serial killers share cells with serial jaywalkers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wersh's national animal is the Sun Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Wersh is ranked 39,639th in the world and 612th in The East Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 54.41 kickbacks per hour.
