The Kingdom of Williamaton is a large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, strictly enforced bedtime, and irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 160 million Williamatonians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 38.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Williamatonian economy, worth 5.26 trillion williams a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Retail, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 32,858 williams, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The only record being broken at sporting events is the highest death toll, dissing one's former country is a prerequisite to apply for Williamatonian citizenship, a shocking number of estate planners are beneficiaries of their clients' wills, and the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Williamaton's national animal is the sea otter, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Williamaton is ranked 298,501st in the world and 19th in A Short Walk to Utopia for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -6.93 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
