Vierdsonia is a WA Member

The Republic of Vierdsonia is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 638 million enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 59%, and even higher for the wealthy. A robust private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

Cheese has become the new icon of political dissent, skateparks can be found in every city, much of Vierdsonia's computer network is controlled by a rampant artificial intelligence, and there's a shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt. Crime is well under control. Vierdsonia's national animal is the gray tabby cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the john.

Vierdsonia is ranked 6th in the region and 14,900th in the world for Most Influential.
