The Free Land of Wooshk is a massive, cultured nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, feral children, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 1.58 billion Wooshkians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bøllïßtrøm. The average income tax rate is 42.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Wooshkian economy, worth 153 trillion Thalers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 97,351 Thalers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The writing style of religious hymns often changes mid-stanza, foreign leaders who don't applaud Leader's speeches are regarded as enemies of Wooshk, teenagers are making eye contact with each other for the first time in years, and cooking with water and baking soda is considered patent infringement. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Wooshk's national animal is the Green Gull, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Experimental Calvinism.

Wooshk is ranked 86,616^th in the world and 1,276^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,896.51 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
