The Republic of North Wheatley is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 13.405 billion North Wheatleyians 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 tiny government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 7.4%.

The strong North Wheatleyian economy, worth 889 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 66,388 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. North Wheatley's national animal is the goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

North Wheatley is ranked 172,239^th in the world and 99^th in Emirates of Futurnia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.11 law-abiding acts per hour.
