The Protectorate of Voidwolf Garrison is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, compulsory vegetarianism, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.365 billion Voidwolf Garrisonians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 25.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Voidwolf Garrisonian economy, worth 39.7 trillion shiny green things a year, is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,080 shiny green things, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government believes there is no problem that raising taxes won't fix, right-wingers complain that too many people are suckling at the welfare teat, exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, and high-tech infantry rifles automatically reload when the soldier shoots outside the screen of their helmet HUD. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Voidwolf Garrison's national animal is the bribe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Voidwolf Garrison is ranked 254,207^th in the world and 219^th in Voidwolf for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -8 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
