The Sultanate of Western Cona is a tiny, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 14 million Western Conans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Spirituality, with Administration, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 58.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The fragile Western Conan economy, worth 373 billion baht a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Tourism, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 26,678 baht, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, organ donation is compulsory, genetic researchers have been expelled, and buildings are experiencing some new ten-ants. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Western Cona's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Western Cona is ranked 301,028^th in the world and 783^rd in Horizon for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -7.87 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
