The Free Federation of New Wellesley is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Jean Roussimoff with an even hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, keen interest in outer space, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 4.732 billion Wellesians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rostann. The average income tax rate is 58.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Wellesian economy, worth 777 trillion Roenters a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 164,226 Roenters, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Obstetricians are not allowed to publish ultrasound pictures of fetuses in medical journals, the nation is experiencing a severe shortage of sporting events, schoolboys who turn to watch pretty girls go by are given detention, and welfare funding has recently gone through the roof. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Wellesley's national animal is the Red Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Wellesley is ranked 270,497th in the world and 9,351st in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 10.85341666492 days.
