The Western Republic of Wintercould is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Schulz with an even hand, and notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, keen interest in outer space, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.364 billion Wintercouldians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Astargod. The average income tax rate is 94.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Wintercouldian economy, worth a remarkable 1,069 trillion Coulders a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,245 Coulders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, the government's new "quiet competence" initiative has supporters and detractors alike reeling in confusion, passengers often cause a stink on public transport, and the military has gone fission for more funding. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wintercould's national animal is the Winternish, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wintercould is ranked 229,953rd in the world and 7,075th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 24.7698799806 days.
