The Free Imperial Republic of Vectrova is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by SoaD with an iron fist, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, vat-grown people, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 37.404 billion Vectrovans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grandville. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Vectrovan economy, worth an astonishing 14,997 trillion velts a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 400,961 velts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials, trains and passengers alike are often late, and kids building model rockets in their backyard are grounded by Space Agency Rangers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vectrova's national animal is the gingerbread man, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Shadism.

Vectrova is ranked 3,216th in the world and 77th in the Rejected Realms for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 17,877.05 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
