The Republic of Vryheid is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning swan population. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.892 billion Vryheidians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 17.7%.
The Vryheidian economy, worth 129 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 44,856 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is moderate. Vryheid's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Vryheid is ranked 177,435th in the world and 7,053rd in Balder for Safest, scoring 56.33 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
