The People's Republic of Vesera is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Idmym with a fair hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.138 billion Veserans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of An'Shirar. The average income tax rate is 78.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Veseran economy, worth 211 trillion Unity Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 26,002 Unity Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Boys who take just one date to the high school prom are called 'losers', citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling", the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks, and roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vesera's national animal is the Red-Ringed Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cats.

Vesera is ranked 124,653rd in the world and 6,337th in Lazarus for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 928.92 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
