The Bluelit Wildflower of Wintermoot is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Inric Nordrim Kestar with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 28.97 billion Wintermootians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wintermoot City. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Wintermootian economy, worth a remarkable 5,879 trillion nothings a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 202,938 nothings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is on the side of working people (like CEOs, bankers and billionaires), craps take up a lot of time, public spending advocates dread when the government says they're here to help, and pre-takeoff checks last longer than the flights themselves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wintermoot's national animal is the nothing, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wintermoot is ranked 304,386th in the world and 222nd in Wintreath for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -15.13 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
