The Confederacy of Woogus is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by His Excellency F R Isky I with a fair hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 9.499 billion Woogusians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Healthcare, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Law & Order and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Woogusia. The average income tax rate is 5.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Woogusian economy, worth a remarkable 1,362 trillion Kroons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 143,423 Kroons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Open-casket funerals are avoided at all cost, the internal market is thriving, visiting dignitaries make excuses to leave functions early and head to the nearest pub, and an online tea-bagging epidemic is getting worse and (meta)worse. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Woogus's national animal is the Rhode Island Red, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Lemonism.

Woogus is ranked 24,658^th in the world and 53^rd in Capitalist Paradise for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 248.48 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
