Overview • Factbook • Dispatches • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Penguinite Kleptocracy of Volaworand is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Acting Prime Minister Alan Duncan with a fair hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 12.568 billion Volaworandians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rothera. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Volaworandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,755 trillion Pound Sterlings a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 219,241 Pound Sterlings, with the richest citizens earning 6.9 times as much as the poorest.

Employers may fire workers without giving any reason, there's a bright dawn ahead for Volaworand, the average commuter spends four hours a day driving to and from work, and you can be fired for dyeing grey hairs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Volaworand's national animal is the Penguin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Volaworand is ranked 48,952^nd in the world and 847^th in the South Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 27.97 flags saluted per person per day.
