The Whatever of Westobity is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Stephen Muzykov with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 3.174 billion Westobitians 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 large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Education, and Industry also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Slożinec. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 52.3%.

The thriving Westobitic economy, worth 300 trillion karbovanecs a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,653 karbovanecs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 336,229 per year while the poor average 19,202, a ratio of 17.5 to 1.

Protests are prohibited from blocking traffic, judges who serve for life or good behavior can expect to stay for a week, administrative districts are increasingly defined by their taste in housing architecture, and all the playground's a stage for Westobitic schoolchildren. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Westobity's national animal is the cow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Violetism.

Westobity is ranked 150,826th in the world and 3rd in Orifnan International for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 685.4 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
