The Kingdom of Weathertop is a massive, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.608 billion Weathertopians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Patriam City. The average income tax rate is 54.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Weathertopian economy, worth 68.4 trillion rupees a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,526 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Community organizers have given up going door to door because nobody is home, promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service, on-duty Air Weathertop flight attendants are usually seen napping in first class, and incarcerated crime lords manage their empires from massage tables. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Weathertop's national animal is the Cheetah, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Weathertop is ranked 120,441st in the world and 523rd in Europeia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,089.44 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
