The Supreme Empire of Woodleland is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Kalendorf with an even hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, smutty television, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 14.168 billion Woodlelandians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Christmas. The average income tax rate is 67.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Woodlelandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,394 trillion Faulkners a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 169,010 Faulkners, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's war memorials are being torn down and replaced with peace gardens, political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from Kalendorf's throne, stony-faced ratings board panelists are unamused by free lap dances, and a passport is literally priceless. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Woodleland's national animal is the Owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Socratian Enlightenment.

Woodleland is ranked 254,328th in the world and 1,050th in Europeia for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.74 kickbacks per hour.
