The Trade Congolomorate of Widgetalia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Minister Machiavelli with an even hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, public floggings, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 24.324 billion Widgetalians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Widgetalia City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Widgetalian economy, worth an astonishing 14,966 trillion Sawbucks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is a breathtaking 615,317 Sawbucks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,938,684 per year while the poor average 149,322, a ratio of 13.0 to 1.

The new iVote app allows representatives to vote on legislation by launching ill-tempered birds and matching candies, advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references, Prime Minister Machiavelli's military council has been nicknamed 'The Knights of the Rotund Table', and basic multiplication is all you need to know to have a child. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Widgetalia's national animal is the Jungle Ferret, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Hierarchigal Capitalisim.

Widgetalia is ranked 105,387th in the world and 1,217th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 403.97610951068 days.
