The Caroling Colony of GoodKingWenceslas is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Nanook Nanook with an even hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 18.412 billion Wenceslians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stephen. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming GoodKingWenceslasian economy, worth a remarkable 1,056 trillion markkaa a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 57,389 markkaa, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation leads Christmas in per capita stalking, constipated disaster survivors are rapidly learning that MRE is short for "Meal Requiring Enemas", anniversaries of major historical events pass unnoticed, and the "boy who cried wolf" policy makes sick people reluctant to call an ambulance. Crime is almost non-existent. GoodKingWenceslas's national animal is the reindeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

GoodKingWenceslas is ranked 323,765^th in the world and 53^rd in Christmas for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -12.85 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
