The Floating Monstrosity of The Wad is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Waddy Mac Waddface with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, ritual sacrifices, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.738 billion Wadians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Industry, with Education, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sharpener. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.6%.

The all-consuming Wadian economy, worth 213 trillion Eraser shavings a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Pizza Delivery, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 78,156 Eraser shavings, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 220,618 per year while the poor average 22,163, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.

A third of Wadians are e-certified CEOs, a firework a day does not in fact keep the doctor away, the government has implemented minimum wage laws, and consuming ecstasy is a common rite of passage. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Wad's national animal is the Eraser, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Wadism.

The Wad is ranked 23,877^th in the world and 2^nd in The Red Dawn Pact for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 5,028.85 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
