The Confederacy of The Gentle Wind is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Kenji Ibara with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 24.888 billion Gentle Windians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken morass — is primarily concerned with Environment, although Welfare, Education, and Social Policy are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Soyokaze. The average income tax rate is 88.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but sluggish Gentle Windian economy, worth 828 trillion barter tokens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Tourism industry. Average income is 33,278 barter tokens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", knitters are arrested for carrying needles in their bags, Kenji Ibara knows that some internet activities are strictly solitary (The Gentle Wind has found 1 easter egg), and contestants on The Gentle Wind's Got Talent are screened by the government to make sure that they actually have talent. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Gentle Wind's national animal is the gentle dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
The Gentle Wind is ranked 6,680th in the world and 45th in Union of Free Nations for Most Stationary, with 2,864.98814557308 days.
