The Sylvan Kingdom of Willow Gate is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Queen with an iron fist, and remarkable for its hatred of cheese, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 13.743 billion Gateholders are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of King's Eye. The average income tax rate is 99.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Willow Gatean economy, worth a remarkable 2,004 trillion lycans a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Beef-Based Agriculture industry. Average income is an impressive 145,820 lycans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's believed that women's brains will overheat if they think for themselves, government expenses are beyond compare, children crying over dropped ice creams are offered high doses of experimental antidepressants, and cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Willow Gate's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Willow Gate is ranked 328,703rd in the world and 2,635th in the West Pacific for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -16.17 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
