The Rogue Nation of White Walker 33 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Idris Swan with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, avowedly heterosexual populace, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.64 billion White Walker 33ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of White Feather. The average income tax rate is 73.8%.
The frighteningly efficient White Walker 33ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,435 trillion francs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 281,939 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.
Orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents, animal liberationists receive government funding to break into animal research labs, the police strictly enforce off-limit zones for tourists, and veteran cops reminisce over their heavy armor days. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. White Walker 33's national animal is the squirrel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Skroth.
White Walker 33 is ranked 286,404th in the world and 527th in NationStates for Highest Food Quality, scoring 4.49 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
