The Autocratic Empire of Walfo is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Neil the II with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.764 billion Walfonians 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 enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imperious. The average income tax rate is 96.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Walfoan economy, worth 774 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 162,536 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Traumatised refugees have a full bedpan shoved into their hands along with their immigration papers, not showing enough enthusiasm for mutual assured destruction is a court-martial offence, politicians constantly ring their voters to remind them how good a job they're doing, and workers of "fairweather faith" claim six months of paid leave for holy days per year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Walfo's national animal is the White Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Walfo is ranked 6,021^st in the world and 121^st in Europe for Most Developed, scoring 93.08 on the Human Development Index.
