The Kingdom of The North is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Lord Benjen Stark with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, devout population of 3.838 billion Northerners enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Winterfell. The average income tax rate is 17.7%.

The Northern economy, worth 235 trillion silver stags a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Gambling. Average income is 61,458 silver stags, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Lord Benjen Stark has just been declared ruler of The North in an international press conference, old gods of the forest has been named as The North's national religion, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, and the government merely sends empty platitudes whenever natural disasters strike foreign nations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The North's national animal is the wolf, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is old gods of the forest.

The North is ranked 104,617^th in the world and 23^rd in Westeros for Most Patriotic, with 14.61 flags saluted per person per day.
