The National Libertarian Utopia of Wisteria and Surrounding Territories is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jax Coolidge with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.803 billion Wisterians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wisteria City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Wisterian economy, worth 217 trillion Wisterian Francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 120,653 Wisterian Francs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 516,315 per year while the poor average 18,074, a ratio of 28.6 to 1.
Hundreds of sailors ride the good ship Jax Coolidge day after day, vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction, pedal-powered removal vans are a popular Maxxmas gift for the children of separated parents, and commercial breaks often lead to nervous breakdowns. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Wisteria and Surrounding Territories's national animal is the Border Collie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Wisteria and Surrounding Territories is ranked 123,215th in the world and 67th in MHBs New Earth for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 2,440.08 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
