The Grand Duchy of West Nagato is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Grand Duke Kyon I with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, national health service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working population of 1.828 billion Nagatoians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greenwood. The average income tax rate is 69.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nagatoian economy, worth 215 trillion Nagatoian Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 117,902 Nagatoian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, government popup ads are springing up like weeds, retail stores are known for creating their own oddly-similar holidays in the months preceding any major festivity, and directors of low-budget sci-fi films are flocking to use Greenwood as a backdrop. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. West Nagato's national animal is the Calico Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Haruhiism.

West Nagato is ranked 46,991^st in the world and 1,497^th in The East Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,303.83 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
