The Federal Republic of Veretstania is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Evelyn Eltanin Voltan with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.84 billion Veretstanians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dekaster. The average income tax rate is 71.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Veretstanian economy, worth 602 trillion Keflings a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,387 Keflings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The military has forsaken terrestrial warfare, seasonal hay-fever sufferers are attending government drug counselling sessions to get free doughnuts, popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs, and scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Veretstania's national animal is the Golden Parakeet, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is None.
Veretstania is ranked 29,263rd in the world and 2nd in Southern Equatorial Council for Most Cultured, scoring 81 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
