The People's Republic of Wiranath is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Leader with a fair hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 15.383 billion Wiranathians 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 enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Wiranathian economy, worth a remarkable 3,259 trillion Wirans a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 211,885 Wirans, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leader has been known to make speeches in fishing waders, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, and intellectual snobbery has the cognoscenti sneering at anyone who doesn't have an opinion on the semiological drift of Umberto Eco's works. Crime is totally unknown. Wiranath's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Religion.

Wiranath is ranked 64,163^rd in the world and 29^th in Right to Life for Most Patriotic, with 25.9 flags saluted per person per day.
