The Republic of The Wickerman is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 4.739 billion Wickermanians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 51.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Wickermanian economy, worth 78.7 trillion Paganisms a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 16,604 Paganisms, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Wickerman's national animal is the Pig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Wickerman is ranked 213,774^th in the world and 1^st in Wicca for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 37.17 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
