The Nomadic Peoples of WYTYG is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 35.643 billion WYTYGians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Social Policy. The average income tax rate is 74.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but stagnant WYTYGian economy, worth 139 trillion lemon-poppy muffins 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Woodchip Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, Furniture Restoration, and Automobile Manufacturing. 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 3,920 lemon-poppy muffins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Organ donation rates have hit a new low, organised sports are frowned upon as frivolous, children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "Love and peace!" as a way of life, and parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. WYTYG's national animal is the ruffy, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
WYTYG is ranked 102,527th in the world and 5th in Generalite Mafia for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 215.48 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
