The Greater Federation of Waskonte is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Daniël Arastaad with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 6.746 billion Waskonteans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded government is primarily concerned with Healthcare, although Education, Welfare, and Defense are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Waskonte Federal District. The average income tax rate is 39.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Waskontean economy, worth 270 trillion rubles a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,139 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Blue camels are considered a delicacy, the country has been 'going shopping' by annexing nearby nations for their resources, medical experts advise that those claiming to be medical experts are probably fraudsters, and ghost regiments exist only on paper. Crime is totally unknown. Waskonte's national animal is the blue camel, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Waskonte is ranked 27,765^th in the world and 3^rd in Noneuropean Union for Most Beautiful Environments, with 865.37 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
