The Nomadic Peoples of Watimonopia is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its deadly medical pandemics, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 1.482 billion Watimonopians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Watimonopian economy, worth 270 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 182,752 dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,664,808 per year while the poor average 2,254, a ratio of 738 to 1.

Pictures of government employees with expensive Pearbooks 'working' on exotic beaches dominate local tabloids, factories place endangered birds in their rafters in pursuit of government protections, unemployed accountants keep double-entry ledgers of their benefit claims, and citizens who leave the country are officially classed as traitors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Watimonopia's national animal is the magpie, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Watimonopia is ranked 9,686^th in the world and 32^nd in Concord for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 5,880.01 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
