The Grand Duchy of West Nagato is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by Grand Duke Kyon II with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working population of 852 million Nagatoans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greenwood. The average income tax rate is 58.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Nagatoan economy, worth 93.4 trillion Nagatoan Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 109,575 Nagatoan Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People are bored of easy crossword puzzles, male cubicle workers stand up every time a woman enters the room, sofas are perpetually on sales that Must End Soon, and polite commuters on the Greenwood Metro always let hurried workers off the train first. 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.

West Nagato is ranked 5,802^nd in the world and 211^th in The East Pacific for Most Secular, with 97.73 Atheism Rate.
