The Republic of Cwh618 is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, parental licensing program, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.087 billion Cwh618ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 54.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Cwh618ian economy, worth 86.5 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 79,532 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Doctors spend more time writing sick notes than caring for the sick, old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, corporations claim the third ounce of any metal traded in a wicker-cone on the Sunday of a full moon as a charitable expense, and the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cwh618's national animal is the kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cwh618 is ranked 129,626^th in the world and 576^th in Crestwood Heights for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 2,898.63 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
