The Best Pacific of TWP is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Glorious Leader with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, fear of technology, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 12.302 billion west pacificans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Hall of Nations. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.

The thriving West Pacific economy, worth 888 trillion chocolate coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. Average income is 72,256 chocolate coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 259,191 per year while the poor average 14,439, a ratio of 18.0 to 1.

Patriots insist that size does matter, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, male cubicle workers stand up every time a woman enters the room, and frat-house partying has become the national pastime. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TWP's national animal is the crab, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans, and its national religion is Darkesia.

TWP is ranked 127,325th in the world and 5,372nd in Osiris for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 2,373 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
