The Forest of Deep Wood is a titanic, cultured nation, notable for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 10.022 billion Foresters 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 effectively ruled by the Department of Spirituality, although Defense is also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The strong audacious economy, worth 608 trillion Snail Shells a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Soda Sales. Average income is 60,673 Snail Shells, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 391,048 per year while the poor average 3,803, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Deep Wood's national animal is the Wolf.

Deep Wood is ranked 317,200^th in the world and 9^th in 001 Alpha Prime for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -6.32 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
