The Rogue Nation of Wallanda is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, conspicuous electricity pylons, and smutty television. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful population of 12.458 billion Wallandans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Wallandan economy, worth a remarkable 4,412 trillion Wallabies a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 354,165 Wallabies, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,046,848 per year while the poor average 94,170, a ratio of 11.1 to 1.

Many mayors are barely in office before being kicked out for minor parking violations, the government subsidises medicines of mass destruction, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, and organised sports are frowned upon as frivolous. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Wallanda's national animal is the Penguin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Wallanda is ranked 143,509th in the world and 2,667th in the South Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 3.87 kickbacks per hour.
