The Grand Duchy of West Nagato is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Grand Duke Kyon I with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, frequent executions, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, hard-working population of 1.84 billion Nagatoians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greenwood. The average income tax rate is 69.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nagatoian economy, worth 216 trillion Nagatoian Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 117,902 Nagatoian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, government popup ads are springing up like weeds, retail stores are known for creating their own oddly-similar holidays in the months preceding any major festivity, and directors of low-budget sci-fi films are flocking to use Greenwood as a backdrop. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. West Nagato's national animal is the Calico Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Haruhiism.

West Nagato is ranked 155,534^th in the world and 5,423^rd in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring zero on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
