The Federal Republic of Wevel is a large, genial nation, remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, national health service, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 164 million Weveli are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 71.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Weveli economy, worth 4.54 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 27,702 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Turning eighteen is often referred to as the 'Age of Aquarius', shoppers carry protractors to verify their produce, telling someone to 'break a leg' is considered a criminal inducement to self harm, and scientists are terrified of fabulous new breakthroughs. 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 233,702^nd in the world and 795^th in Europe for Most Developed, scoring 52.51 on the Human Development Index.
