The Grand Commonwealth of Stormwallis is a massive, genial nation, ruled by First Speaker Domena Tomakarov with an even hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.644 billion Stormwallisians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Abakon. The average income tax rate is 85.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Stormwallisian economy, worth 206 trillion stormlions a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 125,369 stormlions, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, extreme political groups are outlawed, political scientists despair as the national mascot election eclipses all others in voter enthusiasm, and the media seems excessively interested in what First Speaker Domena Tomakarov is wearing this season. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stormwallis's national animal is the narwhal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Stormwallis is ranked 4,493^rd in the world and 63^rd in The Leftist Assembly for Safest, scoring 132.56 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
