The Democratic Federal Autocracy of The Vicures Islands is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, hard-working population of 698 million Vicurian islanders enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ponta-Marè. The average income tax rate is 44.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Vicurian economy, worth 84.7 trillion Vicurian Romels a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 121,349 Vicurian Romels, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, much of The Vicures Islands's computer network is controlled by a rampant artificial intelligence, lifeguards are more concerned with watching for sharks than struggling swimmers, and elderly citizens regularly buy posh multimillion-Vicurian Romel mansions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The Vicures Islands's national animal is the Vicurian Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Vicures Islands is ranked 91,620^th in the world and 628^th in Europe for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 44.72 Effective Tax Rate.
