The Most Serene Republic of Weather Underground is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, public floggings, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.201 billion Weather Undergroundians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 54.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Weather Undergroundian economy, worth 11.6 trillion a little more rains a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 5,290 a little more rains, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voting is voluntary, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, military funding has been stripped back, and the importance of winning Olympic gold medals is indoctrinated from an early age. Crime is totally unknown. Weather Underground's national animal is the Weatherman says, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Weather Underground is ranked 154,463^rd in the world and 13^th in The MT Army for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 207.88 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
