The Dominion of Weast is a huge, genial nation, ruled by The Lord Ruler with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 998 million Weastians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sorth. The average income tax rate is 84.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Weastian economy, worth 102 trillion Clips a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 102,951 Clips, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's a bright dawn ahead for Weast, 'Totally Not Partisan News' is a line item on the government budget, The Lord Ruler is frequently seen begging critics to stop insulting the government, and sick Weastians are hair today and gone tomorrow. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Weast's national animal is the Orca, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Weast is ranked 16,483^rd in the world and 31^st in The Frontier Sea for Highest Poor Incomes, with 100,133.98 Standard Monetary Units.
