The Confederacy of Schwoizerland is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by 7 Confederal Council Members with an even hand, and notable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 7.402 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Social Equality receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Schwoizerdingen. The average income tax rate is 41%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, urban high-volume mailers now receive their mail via chauffeur-driven limousines, organ donation is compulsory, and businesses often fire workers in favour of cheaper automatic systems. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Schwoizerland's national animal is the Piggybank, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Schwoizerfronken.

Schwoizerland is ranked 29th in Deutschland and 123,773rd in the world for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring -28 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
