The Grand Duchy of Windmilling is a massive, cultured nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.461 billion Windmillingians 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 Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zephyr. The average income tax rate is 74.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Windmillingian economy, worth 59.1 trillion 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 Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 40,427 baht, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Birth rates have hit an all-time low, some electoral districts are without a representative as they are stuck with perpetual revotes, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, and artists are renowned for their ability to make art pieces out of thin air. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Windmilling's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Windmilling is ranked 273,764^th in the world and 978^th in Concord for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -7.21 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
