The Federation of Wilbodessan is a very large, safe nation, notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, keen interest in outer space, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 166 million Wilbutissuns have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 20.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Wilbodessanian economy, worth 11.9 trillion Willmarks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Soda Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 71,741 Willmarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Search and rescue forces now accept cheques and all major credit cards, an underground group of geologists hides new discoveries to protect them from being destroyed in the name of safety, invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, and lavish state dinners in Wilbodessan City are the state's leading budgetary expenditure. Crime is totally unknown. Wilbodessan's national animal is the Crow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Wilbodessan is ranked 116,570th in the world and 2,514th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 64.18 law-abiding acts per hour.
