The Republic of West Butter Bakers is a massive, safe nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 43.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient West Butter Bakersian economy, worth 61.4 trillion Half Pennies a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving.

Political candidates who don't release their birth certificates are presumed to have been born in Maxtopia, all tariffs have been abolished, baby boys who pick up pink crayons are sent to a psychiatric ward, and the nation's generous tax credits have brought all the film studios to the yard. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. West Butter Bakers's national animal is the Demi Dogs, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
