The Nomadic Peoples of The wandering wind is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 8.435 billion xansoul are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.
The relatively small, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.6%.
The strong wanderer economy, worth 508 trillion wans a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 60,295 wans, with the richest citizens earning 6.4 times as much as the poorest.
Advertisers scramble to sponsor the broadcast of Leader's most personal functions, truancy levels are on the rise ever since school registers were banned, getting an abortion takes less hassle than writing a letter, and kindergarten teachers with ankle-bracelets are closely supervised by their parole officers. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The wandering wind's national animal is the mountain dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
The wandering wind is ranked 243,232nd in the world and 10,220th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 53.89 law-abiding acts per hour.
