The Wintermootery of The Winter Nomad is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, digital currency, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The democratic, devout population of 22.748 billion Winter Nomadians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 69.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The Winter Nomadian economy, worth a remarkable 1,130 trillion nothings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Tourism, Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 49,705 nothings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Drill sergeants yell in the ears of bespectacled nerds in cybermilitary "reboot camps", a little pushing and pulling is needed for big ships to pass, middle-aged metal fans quite enjoy being called "rebellious youths" by even older politicians, and prankster scientists legally change their names to silly pseudonyms before major discoveries. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Winter Nomad's national animal is the polar bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
The Winter Nomad is ranked 2,893rd in the world and 1st in Wintreath for Most Stationary, with 3,814.70589192 days.
