The Kingdom of Wombelland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Chancellor Robert Siebel with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 20.264 billion Wombelians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wombeldon. The average income tax rate is 67.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Wombelian economy, worth a remarkable 3,544 trillion Wombel Talers a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 174,919 Wombel Talers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Criminals lock themselves in their mums' basements to avoid prison, the government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, wilderness-dwelling hermits are surprised to find railway stations on their front doorsteps, and mothers drive their college-graduate children to work. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wombelland's national animal is the Oriole, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is religious liberty.

Wombelland is ranked 225^th in the world and 7^th in Europe for Lowest Crime Rates, with 121.41 law-abiding acts per hour.
