The United Kingdom of Winterholme is a titanic, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12.952 billion Winterholmeans 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 tiny government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.0%.

The strong Winterholmean economy, worth a remarkable 1,043 trillion kroner a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 80,538 kroner, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Winterholme's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Winterholme is ranked 75,315^th in the world and 122^nd in Wintreath for Safest, scoring 93.57 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
