The Freedom Dictatorship of Wera-aut is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Santa Abrican with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.995 billion Werausinos are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ran-Mantarant. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 59.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Werausino economy, worth 215 trillion Weraas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 107,979 Weraas, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 558,541 per year while the poor average 11,341, a ratio of 49.2 to 1.

Billions are being spent on a new island airport, at the edge of the final frontier space's biggest missile platform is about to unfold, a dictator has seized power and outlawed elections, and believers must practice religion behind church doors lest the government smite them with a mighty fine. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Wera-aut's national animal is the swan, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Scientific Atheism.

Wera-aut is ranked 94,274th in the world and 45th in Thaecia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,082.09 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
