The Welcoming Wanderers of Wordasfolk is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Rosa Bauer with a fair hand, and remarkable for its national health service, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.813 billion Wordasfolk are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rathvodomos. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Wordasfolken economy, worth 101 trillion pennings a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 56,255 pennings, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Eau de Trashcan has become a wildly popular perfume, the nation's reputation for treachery has left it sidelined on the international stage, Rosa Bauer's personal home is one of Solstice's most notorious party destinations, and ample hospital parking is half-filled by the luxury cars of hospital managers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wordasfolk's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Krettha Luthis.

Wordasfolk is ranked 78,002nd in the world and 9th in Solstice for Largest Information Technology Sector, scoring 6,691.78 on the Fann-Boi Productivity Index.
