The Republic of Winter Magallan is a small, socially progressive nation, renowned for its burgeoning rockwarbler population. The hard-working population of 40 million Winter Magallanians 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 Healthcare, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 25.4%.

The Winter Magallanian economy, worth 1.45 trillion bronze nickels a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. Average income is 36,207 bronze nickels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, it is a silent spring in Winter Magallan, bounty hunters have been dispatched to hunt down rogue bounty hunters, and the populace harbors a fierce hatred of the metric system. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Winter Magallan's national animal is the rockwarbler, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Winter Magallan is ranked 179,844^th in the world and 1,176^th in Herta Space Station for Highest Food Quality, scoring 13.3 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
