The Republic of Veris Islands is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Mister President with a fair hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 10.312 billion Verisians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Defense, and Administration also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Adelaide. The average income tax rate is 15.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Verisian economy, worth a remarkable 3,789 trillion Verisian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 367,472 Verisian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Politicians can be condescending (which by the way means "showing an attitude of patronising superiority"), the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, calling tech support mid-shootout is a common occurrence, and Veris Islands's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region. Crime is totally unknown. Veris Islands's national animal is the Verisian Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.
Veris Islands is ranked 34,827th in the world and 1st in Veris Administrative Region for Lowest Crime Rates, with 79.88 law-abiding acts per hour.
