The Great Dictatorship of Wersch is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Supreme Leader Benitot with an iron fist, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol, ubiquitous missile silos, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.259 billion Werschians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wersch City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 72.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Werschian economy, worth 337 trillion nuls 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 large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 an impressive 149,601 nuls, with the richest citizens earning 6.6 times as much as the poorest.

Children spend all morning taking out a comma and all afternoon putting it back in again, the Counter-Terrorism Unit has been nicknamed "Big Bad Wolf" for its tendency towards urban demolition, asking 'a penny for your thoughts?' draws law enforcement response, and the giant 80-storey carving of Supreme Leader Benitot in Mount Rushless can be seen from space. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wersch's national animal is the ant, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is State Atheism.

Wersch is ranked 314,264^th in the world and 742^nd in 10000 Islands for Nudest, with 2.75 cheeks per square mile.
