The Rogue Nation of White Walker 44 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Komet with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, ritual sacrifices, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.518 billion White Walker 44ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flaming Stone. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 71.7%.

The frighteningly efficient White Walker 44ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,485 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 291,777 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.1 times as much as the poorest.

Prisoners can't do number twos without their "toilet buddy" present, half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, and years of counter-terrorism planning are foiled by small details. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. White Walker 44's national animal is the unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Skroth.

White Walker 44 is ranked 4,448th in the world and 34th in NationStates for Lowest Crime Rates, with 119.35 law-abiding acts per hour.
