The People's Republic of Willowden is a massive, safe nation, ruled by D Winston with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 2.536 billion Willowdenians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barksville. The average income tax rate is 42.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Willowdenian economy, worth 149 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,932 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Monocled merchants with funny accents are applying for Willowdenian citizenship in droves, D Winston's peyote-induced "let's all just be friends" speech is trending world-wide, local executives are seen on the corner with cardboard signs reading "will oppress the masses for food", and the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly. Crime is totally unknown. Willowden's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Willowden is ranked 168,176th in the world and 5,870th in Balder for Most Armed, with 0.31 weapons per person.
