The Republic of Walloonia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by President Gruffydd with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 6.175 billion Walloonians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aberystwyth. The average income tax rate is 57.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Walloonian economy, worth 655 trillion ceiniogs a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 106,110 ceiniogs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign powers often deal with problems that Walloonia can't handle, civil servants are no longer allowed to cross their t's, Walloonian scientists are mixing chewing tobacco with bacon flavouring in an attempt to craft the perfect male snack, and the national policy on terrorism is "forgive and forget". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Walloonia's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Brythonic paganism.

Walloonia is ranked 32,623^rd in the world and 1,066^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,981.26 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
