The Republic of Wesonga is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its aversion to nipples, daily referendums, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.296 billion Wesongs enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Natsang. The average income tax rate is 43.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Wesong economy, worth 133 trillion Woos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 102,637 Woos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are deployed to barren deserts to protect small territorial claims, over a third of the seats in sports stadiums have been removed to make room for female-only commodes, unemployed political consultants and advertisers spend every election night weeping for the good old days, and teenage girls worry that they'll be unpopular if their skirts aren't short enough. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wesonga's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wesonga is ranked 55,321st in the world and 3,081st in Balder for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 3,557.45 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
