Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The People's Republic of Wellate is a massive, genial nation, notable for its daily referendums, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.06 billion Wellatians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sumont. The average income tax rate is 74.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Wellatian economy, worth 65.5 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 61,754 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation is currently revamping its entire education system, internet moderator is one of the most popular jobs among the nation's more socially awkward citizens, recognizing the Wellatian flag qualifies you for citizenship, and dubiously qualified East Lebatuckese doctors prescribe ice baths as a treatment for pneumonia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wellate's national animal is the bison, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wellate is ranked 276,134^th in the world and 5,985^th in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 0.61 flags saluted per person per day.
