The The Blood Soaked Island of Westros is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ramsay Bolton with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, hatred of cheese, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 2.412 billion Westrosians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Oslo. The average income tax rate is 94.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Westrosian economy, worth 194 trillion Esportivas a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Average income is 80,476 Esportivas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government recently relinquished its monopoly on the mail service, all beauty contests have been banned, all news sources are under strict government control, and schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Westros's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roosism.

Westros is ranked 204,918th in the world and 7,724th in Balder for Nicest Citizens, with 11.33 average smiles per day.
