The Protectorate of Worble Wuufu is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic, devout population of 23.285 billion Worblers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded, outspoken government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 81.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Worbling economy, worth 195 trillion Wuus a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Cheese Exports industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 8,391 Wuus, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voting is voluntary, education and welfare spending are on the rise, and gambling is outlawed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Worble Wuufu's national animal is the Worble, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Worble Wuufu is ranked 63,464th in the world and 73rd in Spiritus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.12 law-abiding acts per hour.
