The Freedom Dictatorship of Wera-aut is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Santa Abrican with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.084 billion Werausinos are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ran-Mantarant. The average income tax rate is 64.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Werausino economy, worth 216 trillion Weraas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 103,936 Weraas, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Billions are being spent on a new island airport, at the edge of the final frontier space's biggest missile platform is about to unfold, a dictator has seized power and outlawed elections, and believers must practice religion behind church doors lest the government smite them with a mighty fine. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wera-aut's national animal is the swan, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Scientific Atheism.

Wera-aut is ranked 23,078^th in the world and 45^th in Thaecia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 258.45 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
