The Empire of West-Etowah is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 19.307 billion West-Etowahians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.6%.

The thriving West-Etowahian economy, worth a remarkable 1,124 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 58,228 Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 206,110 per year while the poor average 11,877, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. West-Etowah's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

West-Etowah is ranked 94,948^th in the world and 2^nd in Mole Rats for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 2,537.91 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
