The High Matriarchy of Waywards Edge is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by High Matriarch Kate Singe with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate population of 3.572 billion Waywardi enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Serenina. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Waywardi economy, worth 561 trillion Planets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 157,179 Planets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Maximum security fish farms leave caged salmon pining for the fjords, census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, government officials are held to the highest standard of morality, and the government seems embarrassed to be seen governing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Waywards Edge's national animal is the Dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Sorceri Ceria.

Waywards Edge is ranked 14,076^th in the world and 51^st in Refugia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 95.35 law-abiding acts per hour.
