The Allied States of Walo is a huge, safe nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 480 million Waloans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small government prioritizes Law & Order, with Welfare, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Waldo Bay. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.0%.

The thriving Waloan economy, worth 42.2 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 87,988 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.

It takes all playtime for children to locate their friends among two hundred identical heads, the poor are often seen pale and dizzy after selling their blood to make ends meet, a punitive tax has been placed on harmful emissions, and Walo has designated Waldo Bay as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Walo's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Walo is ranked 230,617^th in the world and 3,287^th in The East Pacific for Largest Populations, with 480 million capita.
