The Republic of Vetronia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 15.271 billion Vetronians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vetra. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Vetronian economy, worth a remarkable 4,148 trillion Crowns a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 271,679 Crowns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 946,634 per year while the poor average 56,768, a ratio of 16.7 to 1.

Multiple polls have christened the newly-formed Filibuster Committee as "the least efficient government bureaucracy", fraternities are notorious for drunken hooliganism, the ruling party has a devil of a time keeping order in the ranks, and building a phallus out of Minecraft blocks counts as indecent exposure. Crime is totally unknown. Vetronia's national animal is the Bull, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vetronia is ranked 3,544^th in the world and 1^st in The Confederation of Free States for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 11,986.75 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
