The Office of The First Warden is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its burgeoning Griffin population. The hard-working population of 15.374 billion Wardens are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.7%.

The very strong First Wardenian economy, worth 835 trillion Crowns a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 54,339 Crowns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 165,996 per year while the poor average 13,787, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. The First Warden's national animal is the Griffin, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

The First Warden is ranked 192,340^th in the world and 255^th in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 890.45 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
