The Community of Wooo is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.114 billion Woooans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Big City. The average income tax rate is 86.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Woooan economy, worth 146 trillion Funs 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 Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 131,183 Funs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Octogenarian swimsuit models insist that they've still got it, the nation's most "productive" diamond mine hasn't been operational for seven months, the hardest thing for a mining operation to dig through is government red tape, and passive-aggressive congratulations cards inform mums-to-be that their pregnancy is their greatest achievement in life. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wooo's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wooo is ranked 19,939th in the world and 341st in the West Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 22.81 average smiles per day.
