The Illustriously Shiny Embassy of Wysterian Ambassadors is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 46.285 billion Embassy Staffers enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 6.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Wysterian Ambassadorsian economy, worth a remarkable 4,854 trillion Hands of Friendship a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 104,883 Hands of Friendship, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

More and more students are taking up a career in medicine, airship use has soared while property values beneath their routes have plummeted, tax evaders are regularly visited by agents of the Wysterian Ambassadors Blood Tithe, and citizens may cast their vote over the internet or phone. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Wysterian Ambassadors's national animal is the Badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wysterian Ambassadors is ranked 128,156th in the world and 268th in 10000 Islands for Most Extreme, scoring 20.72 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
