The Republic of Wyndland is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.067 billion Wyndlanders hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Highhaven. The average income tax rate is 79.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Wyndic economy, worth a remarkable 1,118 trillion oriks a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 158,259 oriks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Birth rates have hit an all-time low, Super Barry Brothers is the most popular video game in the nation, diplomats miss flights while wandering Highhaven Airport's endless art maze, and an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Wyndland's national animal is the grus cervicorubens, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wyndland is ranked 8,122^nd in the world and 195^th in Europe for Most Developed, scoring 91.84 on the Human Development Index.
