The Rising Gold Crescent of Weeklingz Federation is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Arnold Schwarze with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.29 billion Weeklingzians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sonnenauburg District. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Weeklingzian economy, worth 177 trillion Libertarias a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 137,239 Libertarias, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has spent days debating the merits of a petition calling for a ban on sporks, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, common misteaks slip threw as the Issues Editing Team adds issues by the hundread (Weeklingz Federation has found 2 easter eggs), and elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation. Crime is totally unknown. Weeklingz Federation's national animal is the Skeleton, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Grand Admiral Vorhollah of the High Seas.

Weeklingz Federation is ranked 9,129^th in the world and 86^th in Europeia for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 56.1 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
