The State of WH is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 18.354 billion WHians 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 minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.5%.

The powerhouse WHian economy, worth 882 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. Average income is 48,067 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 326,798 per year while the poor average 2,582, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, deers are considered a delicacy, a major religion has been named as WH's national religion, and WH has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. WH's national animal is the deer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

WH is ranked 288,991st in the world and 346th in Omega Prime for Lowest Crime Rates, with 34.15 law-abiding acts per hour.
