The Apocryphal Whirlwind of Magnolia Shores is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by High Overseer Yuna Drakonbow with a fair hand, and remarkable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 1.327 billion Aherians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yunaston. The average income tax rate is 82.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aherian economy, worth 197 trillion Guilders a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 148,585 Guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Aherians seem to be catching more chills, late night adverts for breast milk co-ops regularly win pornography industry awards, newly-peaceful nations are forced to use assault rifles as farming tools due to a lack of funds for purchasing anything else, and grannies get pulled over for knitting pullovers while driving. Crime is totally unknown. Magnolia Shores's national animal is the Pink-Crested Heron, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Magnolia Shores is ranked 18,435^th in the world and 23^rd in Eladria for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 3,536.4 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
