“Our Life for Our Nation”

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

The Republic of East Wali is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Ethan Lunther with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 4.367 billion East Walians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Walisia City. The average income tax rate is 88.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient East Walian economy, worth 920 trillion Euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 210,787 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, inter-species marriages are ignored by the government, and estate agents justify funky smells by revealing how often the previous owners showered. Crime is totally unknown. East Wali's national animal is the Molasi-Malaya Rhino, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

East Wali is ranked 219,765^th in the world and 3,924^th in The North Pacific for Most Authoritarian, with 506.49 milliStalins.
