The Dominion of Fort Venus is a huge, safe nation, notable for its parental licensing program and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 465 million Oyster Rockers hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Spirituality, although Welfare, Defense, and Education are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 24.4%.

The Venusite economy, worth 22.2 trillion Rocks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 47,712 Rocks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens wishing to be parents must undertake a series of gruelling tests to evaluate their capabilities, debates on whether toilet seats should be left up or down are increasingly commonplace, big game hunters travel to Fort Venus to try their hand at shark-shooting, and Fort Venus City has restaurants serving every meat from aardvark to zebra. Crime is well under control. Fort Venus's national animal is the Oyster, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Fort Venus is ranked 275,649^th in the world and 1^st in Aphrodite for Most Secular, with 11.03 Atheism Rate.
