The Republic of Varanasia is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, renowned for its burgeoning King Cobra population. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 13.048 billion Varanasians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mumpali. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.4%.

The strong Varanasian economy, worth 588 trillion Rupees a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 45,119 Rupees, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.

Varanasia has designated Mumpali as its capital city, politicians live in luxury, Harry Potter books are banned, and euthanasia is legal. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Varanasia's national animal is the King Cobra.

Varanasia is ranked 161,644^th in the world and 6,364^th in Lazarus for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 35,012.95 Standard Monetary Units.
