The Empire of Viktorias is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Lawrence II Captianimicis with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, triple-decker prams, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 799 million Viktorians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Defense, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Viktoria. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 41.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Viktorian economy, worth 97.6 trillion talers a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 122,099 talers, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 554,418 per year while the poor average 16,468, a ratio of 33.7 to 1.

Girls in elementary school classes gaze longingly at boys playing tag, private pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are given away freely by the government, wealthy pranksters dump refuse on unsuspecting citizens from up high, and Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Viktoria to enjoy their national art. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Viktorias's national animal is the chimera, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Viktorias is ranked 28,292^nd in the world and 109^th in Europe for Largest Black Market, with 9.23 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
