The Republic of Wyndland is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.949 billion Wyndlandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Highhaven. The average income tax rate is 67.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Wyndlandian economy, worth 244 trillion oriks a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 125,528 oriks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Royalist is the most offensive slur in the Wyndlandian language, the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, children as young as eight can present logical proofs for the existence of the afterlife, and excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wyndland's national animal is the white crane, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wyndland is ranked 19,098^th in the world and 317^th in Europe for Safest, scoring 114.44 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
