The Republic of French New Wake Island is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by President William J Dock with an even hand, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, public floggings, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.096 billion Wake Islanders are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Lander City. The average income tax rate is 68.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Wake Islandian economy, worth 122 trillion Trench Dollar Second Editions a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 112,188 Trench Dollar Second Editions, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new Refuse Hills housing development is under construction, the men in trenchcoats hanging around playgrounds are actually police officers, the sun now sets on the Wake Islandian Empire, and signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. French New Wake Island's national animal is the Spotted Tabby Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

French New Wake Island is ranked 203,495^th in the world and 7^th in The Socialist Republic for Largest Populations, with 1.10 billion capita.
