The Republic of The Wolatedin is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its avant-garde cinema, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, democratic population of 618 million Wolatedinians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ekaham. The average income tax rate is 27.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Wolatedinian economy, worth 47.8 trillion marks 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 Information Technology, Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. 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 77,356 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas", refugees from other nations are flocking to The Wolatedin's border, and posh restaurants scatter glass fragments on the dining room floor to keep out barefoot undesirables. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The Wolatedin's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

The Wolatedin is ranked 117,716^th in the world and 5,017^th in The North Pacific for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 1,544.92 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
