The Republic of Warfburg is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Jeremy Brennan with an even hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.285 billion Warfburgians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Latos. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Warfburgian economy, worth 363 trillion wrens a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,755 wrens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Shoppers have literally had their hands full since plastic bags were banned, the government has legalised small-scale capitalism, frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security, and election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Warfburg's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Warfburg is ranked 37,279^th in the world and 74^th in The Western Isles for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 187.91 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
