The State of WhoLocks is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 17.872 billion WhoLocksians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.

The strong WhoLocksian economy, worth a remarkable 1,135 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Soda Sales, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 63,522 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 431,878 per year while the poor average 3,413, a ratio of 126 to 1.

All tariffs have been abolished, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, WhoLocks has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of WhoLocks in an international press conference. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. WhoLocks's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

WhoLocks is ranked 263,588th in the world and 7th in Edmonton for Lowest Crime Rates, with 43.14 law-abiding acts per hour.
