The Ecofeminist Wiccan Republic of Wise Witches is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Queen Morgana with an iron fist, and notable for its vat-grown people, compulsory military service, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 10.877 billion Witches are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Porffor. The average income tax rate is 92.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Magician economy, worth a remarkable 2,417 trillion 🍪🍪🍪Chocolate Chip Cookie🍪🍪🍪s a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 222,224 🍪🍪🍪Chocolate Chip Cookie🍪🍪🍪s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, the government has stated an intention to min-max its stats for 'teh pwnage', sneezing pedestrians are grabbed by alley-lurking doctors, and mystics are claiming that a simultaneous rise in scepticism and education budgets is correlation rather than causation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wise Witches's national animal is the Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Wicca.

Wise Witches is ranked 64,555th in the world and 172nd in Forest for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.94 law-abiding acts per hour.
