“And so it begins”

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

The United Kingdom of Wheelhalla is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Ratnar Ratkins with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, daily referendums, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The quiet, industrious population of 5.966 billion Riders are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hell of the North. The average income tax rate is 70.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Wheelhallan economy, worth 639 trillion Bidons a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,244 Bidons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rioting during the nation's hosting of ORDER caused one million Bidons of property damage, captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship, the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet, and the nation locks people up and tells them they're mad for compassion's sake. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wheelhalla's national animal is the Badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Shimano.

Wheelhalla is ranked 13,163^rd in the world and 292^nd in the Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 142.98 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
