The State of Westward Frontier is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and renowned for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 14.053 billion Westward Frontierians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, liberal, pro-business, outspoken individuals prioritizes Industry, with Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Law & Order are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Income tax is unheard of.

The strong Westward Frontierian economy, worth 698 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 49,735 betales, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 306,380 per year while the poor average 3,513, a ratio of 87.2 to 1.

Westward Frontier has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, The Governor has just been declared ruler of Westward Frontier in an international press conference, the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, and videogames like 'Equalia: Knights of Self-Confidence' are proving inexplicably unpopular. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Westward Frontier's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Westward Frontier is ranked 289,413^th in the world and 664^th in Ancient Lands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 33.29 law-abiding acts per hour.
