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

The Federation of Weissmans is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 448 million Weissmansians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Salisbury. The average income tax rate is 32.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Weissmansian economy, worth 49.7 trillion Weisses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 110,877 Weisses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Military spending is on the increase, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, tourists call Weissmansian beach towns "the fine coastline", and CSI Forest is this year's hit new crime show. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Weissmans's national animal is the fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Weissmans is ranked 1,791^st in the world and 77^th in the South Pacific for Most Valuable International Artwork, with 416.28 Bank.
