The Sororal Republics of Wallenburg is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Sororal Republican Council with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 20.209 billion Wallenburgians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Independence. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Wallenburgian economy, worth a remarkable 3,254 trillion national CRUS a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 161,060 national CRUS, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, the mining industry has taken a hit from tighter environmental regulations, shady doctors seem to have impeccable records, and the government insists that a ghost voted ten million times in the last election. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wallenburg's national animal is the creeper, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Wallenburg is ranked 1,153rd in the world and 18th in The East Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 37,594.13 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
