The Paramilitary Republic of Wobbegong is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Akeldama Kremvh Rothsgori with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, keen interest in outer space, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, democratic, humorless, devout population of 19.903 billion Wobbegongians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Environment, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neo Shark City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Wobbegongian economy, worth a remarkable 7,220 trillion Cey Cards a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 362,766 Cey Cards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is proud to report that ten percent of all tax revenue goes to funding suspected terrorist organizations, there's no such thing as bad publicity, recorded music can be rented but not bought from record companies, and attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wobbegong's national animal is the Wobbegong Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Wobbegong is ranked 158,807^th in the world and 20^th in The United Islands of the Atlantic for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 290.47 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
