The Republic of Wollitarthe

“Mission Accomplished”

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

The Republic of Wollitarthe is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 10.296 billion Wollitartheans enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.

The strong Wollitarthean economy, worth 507 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 49,307 dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 317,789 per year while the poor average 3,090, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Wollitarthe's national animal is the turtle, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Wollitarthe is ranked 266,140^th in the world and 6,892^nd in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 40.62 law-abiding acts per hour.
