The Continental Union of West Adi Hij is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The Federal Council of West Adi Hij with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, infamous sell-swords, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.887 billion West Adi Hijians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient West Adi Hijian economy, worth 203 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 107,689 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Posh restaurants scatter glass fragments on the dining room floor to keep out barefoot undesirables, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, The Federal Council of West Adi Hij is considering changing the West Adi Hijian flag to one with more glitter, and cars are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. West Adi Hij's national animal is the porpoise, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

West Adi Hij is ranked 3,290^th in the world and 2^nd in Carcassonne for Safest, scoring 137.99 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
