The Equilism protectorate of Whamabama is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Richard Marks with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 32.361 billion Whamabamen enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oured. The average income tax rate is 4.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Whamabaman economy, worth a remarkable 4,981 trillion Equiliants a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 153,950 Equiliants, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

There's a politician called Male Infant Bonar, stealing from a clothesline is a serious offence, the government raises tariffs on a weekly basis, and many friends and relatives of Richard Marks have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Whamabama's national animal is the bearded clam, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Whamabama is ranked 11,481^st in the world and 23^rd in Equilism for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 12,039.88 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
