The Republic of Wolverton is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by President Sarah Feehan with a fair hand, and renowned for its burgeoning wolverine population. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.649 billion Wolvertonians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wolverhampton. The average income tax rate is 8.4%.

The Wolvertonian economy, worth 206 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Trout Farming. Average income is 56,713 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Entire families are dragged into counseling whenever children fight on a playground, beggars lack pockets for spare change, therapists dispense hugs for heroin dealers and cuddles for crackheads, and the television adaptation of Jennifer Government is the most popular program in the nation. Crime is well under control. Wolverton's national animal is the wolverine and its national religion is Deism.

Wolverton is ranked 101,840^th in the world and 3^rd in Wolverton Mountain for Most Cultured, scoring 66 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
