The Holy Empire of Vilgaquistao is a small, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 29 million Vilgaquistans 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 enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 62.4%.

The Vilgaquistaoan economy, worth 1.41 trillion reales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 48,451 reales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

Angry citizens complain that there isn't enough geographical diversity on the new banknotes, military units are often seen arguing over which one is truly favored by the gods, parking's carefree without parking car fees, and elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vilgaquistao's national animal is the Harpia, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Vilgaquistao is ranked 125,242^nd in the world and 5,977^th in The North Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 48,451.81 Standard Monetary Units.
