The Crimson King of Westwind is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Westwind with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, public floggings, and national health service. The hard-working population of 42.533 billion Westwindians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexandria. The average income tax rate is 71.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Westwindian economy, worth a remarkable 2,857 trillion Equiliants a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales. Average income is 67,182 Equiliants, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government's suicide hotline now redirects callers to local tax lawyers, the Westwindian delegation to the World Assembly is having a hard time convincing people that international law will "pay for itself somehow...", the government terminates employment with extreme prejudice, and Westwind's personal home is one of Equilism's most notorious party destinations. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Westwind's national animal is the Dream Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Westwind is ranked 27,961^st in the world and 28^th in Equilism for Highest Food Quality, scoring 77.61 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
