The Republic of Wallach LXI is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, keen interest in outer space, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 651 million Wallach LXIians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.8%.

The very strong Wallach LXIian economy, worth 33.6 trillion pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Trout Farming, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,551 pesos, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 199,738 per year while the poor average 9,119, a ratio of 21.9 to 1.

City workers have declared that rolling markets aren't good for business after all, passionate nomination battles are often as intense as general elections, roosters that herald the rising sun are immediately sent to the slaughterhouse, and pretending to be prejudiced is a good way to get out of jury duty. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Wallach LXI's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wallach LXI is ranked 279,000^th in the world and 5^th in Outlandia for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -5.51 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
