The Collective of Wineclaw is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, unlimited-speed roads, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 13.888 billion Wineclaws are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Wineclaw economy, worth a remarkable 1,611 trillion cells a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 116,062 cells, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The sun now sets on the Wineclaw Empire, the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene, the new one cell coin also makes a handy throwing-star, and adults pretending to be teenage girls claim to have wholesome motives. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wineclaw's national animal is the peregrine falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Wineclaw is ranked 131,125^th in the world and 2,920^th in The North Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 220 billion Standard Monetary Units.
