The Dissolved Region of West District is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Jarmo Harmaajärvi with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, parental licensing program, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.952 billion Trocs are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kullanhohtoinenkaupunki. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Trocians economy, worth a remarkable 1,022 trillion Troccoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 147,135 Troccoins, with the richest citizens earning 7.7 times as much as the poorest.

School nurse's offices feature full-service operating suites, parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, the government will gladly pay you next Tuesday for a hamburger today, and lending money has become a major liability. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. West District's national animal is the Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholic.

West District is ranked 28,320th in the world and 4th in Trocian District for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,753.12 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
