The Rogue Nation of White Walker 7 is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Mephistopheles with an iron fist, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, infamous sell-swords, and labour-free parental leave. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.876 billion White Walker 7ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Raton. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.1%.

The frighteningly efficient White Walker 7ian economy, worth a remarkable 4,452 trillion marks a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 280,457 marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 962,185 per year while the poor average 59,998, a ratio of 16.0 to 1.

Students are explicitly allowed to write answers on their forearms before exams, city workers have declared that rolling markets aren't good for business after all, no animal is considered endangered if there's another that looks kind of like it, and teenagers get their license without taking the test. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. White Walker 7's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Skroth.

White Walker 7 is ranked 329,743rd in the world and 759th in NationStates for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 9.22 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
