The Greyscale Magi-Monk of Wintermoot is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Inric Nordrim Kestar with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 23.907 billion Wintermootians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wintermoot City. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Wintermootian economy, worth a remarkable 4,741 trillion nothings a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 198,350 nothings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The delay between passed legislation and real world implementation is often a decade or longer, citizens must have a license to operate a computer, former stunt pilots are unable to pass the licence test to fly a drone, and asthmatics can now suffer the effects of polluting chimneys from further away than ever before. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wintermoot's national animal is the nothing, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wintermoot is ranked 3,488th in the world and 9th in Wintreath for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 659.62 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
