The Republic of Wadelhelpia is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Delia Helper with a fair hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, hatred of cheese, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 21.236 billion Wadelhelpians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wadelhelpton. The average income tax rate is 78.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Wadelhelpian economy, worth a remarkable 1,161 trillion floryns a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 54,678 floryns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Jennifer Government is a bestseller, signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles, failed genetic experiments wreak havoc as they roam the countryside, and tourists are duped into trimming hedges for the horsy-set. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wadelhelpia's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Delegationism.

Wadelhelpia is ranked 302,730^th in the world and 45^th in Nudist Dreamland for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -13.56 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
