The Republic of Westberg is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its burgeoning dolphin population. The quiet, industrious population of 2.909 billion Westbergians 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 Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 20.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Westbergian economy, worth 128 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 44,055 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Westberg's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Westberg is ranked 223,949^th in the world and 9,718^th in Lazarus for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 257.78 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
