The Blue Meanies of Unibotian WA Mission is a colossal, socially progressive nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5.633 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass -- is effectively ruled by the Department of Social Welfare, with areas such as Commerce and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 39%, but much higher for the wealthy. A healthy private sector is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, followed by Furniture Restoration and Basket Weaving.

The wearing and manufacture of fur apparel is banned, students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, it is illegal to own a mobile phone, and the government has undertaken a massive education and health program to combat VODAIS. Crime is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Unibotian WA Mission's national animal is the walrus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the eduard.

Unibotian WA Mission is ranked 85th in Kyzikos and 30,656th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -10 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
