The Versian Empire of Middle Vers is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Empress Asseylum Vers Allusia V with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, pith helmet sales, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.566 billion Versians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capria. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Versian economy, worth a remarkable 6,749 trillion credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 583,559 credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.
Colonial citizens are forced to sing the praise of the "Great Versian Liberator", Empress Asseylum Vers Allusia V's iHouse is so intelligent that it manages its own social media accounts, the government is seen to favor traditionalist religions, and children's books regularly feature formerly distressed damsels suing their princes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Middle Vers's national animal is the Versian eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Versianism.
Middle Vers is ranked 447th in the world and 3rd in Institute of Cellulose for Lowest Crime Rates, with 204.25 law-abiding acts per hour.
