The Republic of Waisnor is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Kirill Isachenko with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 15.557 billion Waisnorians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grodno. The average income tax rate is 89.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Waisnorian economy, worth a remarkable 2,284 trillion thalers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 146,830 thalers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Skateboarding is considered a form of diplomacy, anti-government web sites are springing up, the children of Waisnor are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence, and women have a strange proclivity for dressing up as caped weasels. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Waisnor's national animal is the heron, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Waisnor is ranked 6,069^th in the world and 1^st in Iris for Most Developed, scoring 93.71 on the Human Development Index.
