The Principality of Wallonsa is a large, genial nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 174 million Wallonsans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 15.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Wallonsan economy, worth 9.09 trillion kronor a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,262 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and Leader's family members carry literal get-out-of-jail-free cards. Crime is totally unknown. Wallonsa's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wallonsa is ranked 78,724^th in the world and 255^th in Starlight for Most Cultured, scoring 68 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
