The Capitalist Union of Westlican is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Bill Billion with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, feral children, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 5.571 billion Westlicanians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Free City of Freenoa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.7%.

The thriving Westlicanian economy, worth 682 trillion Libers a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 122,430 Libers, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 649,017 per year while the poor average 12,222, a ratio of 53.1 to 1.

Tuba players are paid to quietly whisper into their instruments, academics have a bone to pick with free market entrepreneurs, there's an aura of pseudoscience around academia, and a firework a day does not in fact keep the doctor away. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Westlican's national animal is the Latias and Latios, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is None.

Westlican is ranked 283,714th in the world and 5,233rd in the South Pacific for Safest, scoring 4.01 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
