The Blue Skies of West Peninsula is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Jean-Michel Kärlek with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program, infamous sell-swords, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.364 billion Peninsians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moinaskz. The average income tax rate is 75.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Peninsian economy, worth 279 trillion suns a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 118,173 suns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Descriptions of properties as "a stone's throw from the city centre" require a trebuchet to be true, legislation sometimes has to battle through weeks of filibustering to pass, strange men lingering in offices distributing television sets is a basis for a system of government, and life is somewhat repetitive. Crime is totally unknown. West Peninsula's national animal is the walrus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

West Peninsula is ranked 30,096^th in the world and 873^rd in The North Pacific for Largest Governments, scoring 27 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
