Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Principality of West Pac is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and notable for its happy-go-lucky citizens. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.322 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, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is effectively ruled by the Department of Education, with areas such as Social Welfare and the Environment receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of West Pac City. The average income tax rate is 97%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Uranium Mining industry.

Skateparks can be found in every city, euthanasia is illegal, West Pac has been greatly criticised for its isolationist policies, and the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. West Pac's national animal is the Cheetah, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the non-existant Gorilla.

West Pac is ranked 3rd in Keglen and 36,607th in the world for Most Conservative, scoring 60 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
