The Republic of Ventersburg is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, democratic population of 2.707 billion Ventersburgians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, although Public Transport, Law & Order, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.6%.

The thriving Ventersburgian economy, worth 168 trillion rubles a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. Average income is 62,353 rubles, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 220,712 per year while the poor average 12,718, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Ventersburg's national animal is the penguin, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Ventersburg is ranked 246,149^th in the world and 10,560^th in Osiris for Highest Poor Incomes, with 12,718.94 Standard Monetary Units.
