The Democratic States of Wellamen is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.802 billion Wellamen 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 75.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Wellamenian economy, worth 400 trillion bitcoins a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 105,450 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Prices for nearly everything reach all-time highs as business tax breaks are discontinued, coffee cups have grown in size to accommodate the huge ingredients list, murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, and government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wellamen's national animal is the emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Wellamen is ranked 126,083rd in the world and 2,313th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 272.03622867448 days.
