The Rogue Nation of South Venison is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Todd Howard with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and labour-free parental leave. The compassionate population of 2.218 billion South Venisonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gallifrey. The average income tax rate is 75.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient South Venisonian economy, worth 236 trillion Caps a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 106,807 Caps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Todd Howard reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, the government has announced its plans to construct a giant weaponised robot-cat, the South Venison Enquirer offers weekly cash prizes for 'most blasphemous song, story, or cartoon', and radio shows frequently feature people denouncing religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. South Venison's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Gombligernicampoikananity.

South Venison is ranked 99,117^th in the world and 1,536^th in the South Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 3,108.21 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
