The Federal Republic of Wevel is a very large, cultured nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 278 million Weveli love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wevel. The average income tax rate is 72.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Weveli economy, worth 9.22 trillion euros a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,178 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, Wevel has designated Wevel as its capital city, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, and fidgety cubicle workers play with their balls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wevel's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wevel is ranked 256,998^th in the world and 819^th in Europe for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -4.85 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
