The Basileia of Willink is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Basileus Nikephorus I with a fair hand, and notable for its flagrant waste-dumping, infamous sell-swords, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 23.793 billion Willinkians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Education and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Salonika. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Willinkian economy, worth a remarkable 4,116 trillion Solidis a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Soda Sales, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 173,018 Solidis, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,146,034 per year while the poor average 10,042, a ratio of 114 to 1.
City sidewalks are crowded with overweight people, stylish juvenile delinquents are highly overrepresented in fatal motorcycle accidents, the end of autumn is celebrated with a bonfire of designer bags, and the nation operates a "finders-keepers" policy with other nations' citizens. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Willink's national animal is the Caracal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Willinkian Orthodox Church.
Willink is ranked 289,966th in the world and 5th in Haven for Safest, scoring 3.7 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
