The Socialist Union of Wrangleria is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by The Civil Council with an even hand, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, pith helmet sales, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 6.685 billion Wranglerians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, corrupt, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Menoca. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Wranglerian economy, worth a remarkable 1,203 trillion Uremba or Denarii a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 180,041 Uremba or Denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children's TV shows are having a gay old time, the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, authorities are looking for a stool pigeon to rat out who is stealing food from pigeon toilets, and vehicular manslaughter is apparently a victimless crime. Crime is totally unknown. Wrangleria's national animal is the Kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nyzonism.

Wrangleria is ranked 23,559^th in the world and 328^th in the Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 6,533.32 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
