The Free Land of Womble River is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ross the Water Womble with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.666 billion Womble Riverians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Womble Ship. The average income tax rate is 63.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Womble Riverian economy, worth 315 trillion Womble Sharkaloos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 27,050 Womble Sharkaloos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Womble River has designated The Womble Ship as its capital city, one tree's worth of paperwork accompanies each imported log of timber, libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, and Ross the Water Womble has just been declared ruler of Womble River in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Womble River's national animal is the Womble Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Womble River is ranked 20,022nd in the world and 1,585th in Chicken overlords for Most Stationary, with 1,621.12484442388 days.
