The Kingdom of Ventalia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by First Minister Francois Dubois with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, vat-grown people, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 11.062 billion Ventalians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Montnoire. The average income tax rate is 83.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ventalian economy, worth a remarkable 3,526 trillion libras a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 318,801 libras, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, politicians always seem to take two steps forward then three steps back, the silencing of dissent speaks volumes about the quality of Ventalian democracy, and billions of libras are spent to take high-quality photos of the Fallow Deer Nebula. Crime is totally unknown. Ventalia's national animal is the fallow deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Historical Ventalian Paganism.

Ventalia is ranked 6,716^th in the world and 5^th in Lorania for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 12,912.25 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
