The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 202,899 ꕥ Amaranthine Fleurs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Emergency responders spend more time in the air than giving air, people believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more, shoppers carry protractors to verify their produce, and it's all white elephants on parade.

Wheath's national animal is the Neades strandbeest monster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnostic Atheism.

Wheath is ranked 273,378^th in the world and 22^nd in The Amaranthine Isles for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -8.09 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
