The Principality of Wodsustein is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Walderada IV with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.566 billion Wodsusteinians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Industry, with Defense, Healthcare, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Soltenburg. The average income tax rate is 26.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Wodsusteinian economy, worth 156 trillion Ryes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 99,744 Ryes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Wodsusteinian police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods, '.lib' or '.con' domains indicate whether Wodsusteinian websites are meant for liberals or conservatives, and the upper class have been throwing riots after hunting was recently banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Wodsustein's national animal is the Robber-Baron Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Door of Reverence.

Wodsustein is ranked 187,268^th in the world and 367^th in Refugia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.03 law-abiding acts per hour.
