The Kingdom of Westinridge is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its national health service, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 17.1 billion Westinians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Belverde. The average income tax rate is 95.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Westinian economy, worth a remarkable 2,674 trillion Sequins a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 156,423 Sequins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The newest East Lebatuckese coins have "long live East Lebatuck" on heads and "death to Westinridge" on tails, arguments about toilet seats being left up or down get surprisingly heated, building a phallus out of Minecraft blocks counts as indecent exposure, and pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Westinridge's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Westinridge is ranked 17,375^th in the world and 9^th in Scandinavia for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 7,669.48 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
