The Federation of Visse is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by 'President' Edoard d'Vissea with an iron fist, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol, infamous sell-swords, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.825 billion Visseans 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 24.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vissean economy, worth 294 trillion lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 104,112 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Religious bigotry and a fear of outsiders have replaced religious studies in schools, genocide is seen as a topic best avoided in history lessons, airship use has soared while property values beneath their routes have plummeted, and there is a heavy social stigma attached to e-cigarettes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Visse's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Visse is ranked 29,986^th in the world and 1,178^th in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 25.58 Flags saluted per person per day.
