The Big Bull of Woonsocket is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Bull Schmidt with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 48.721 billion Woonsocketeers enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The minute, corrupt government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wooncow City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Woonsocketian economy, worth an astonishing 22,603 trillion Moolahs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 463,934 Moolahs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Most Moolah coins are riddled with bite marks, this summer's chart-toppers sound almost the same as last year's, the 'no-coal' transition is being paid for in slashed student support funds, and it is cheaper to die in the wilderness than to survive. Crime is totally unknown. Woonsocket's national animal is the Bull, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Bovinity.

Woonsocket is ranked 641^st in the world and 2^nd in 10000 Islands for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 18,261.33 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
