The United Socialist States of Vilthis is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Politburo Standing Committee with a fair hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, daily referendums, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.419 billion Vilthisians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vilthispolis. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Vilthisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,612 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 217,397 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Banning party poppers has been a real party pooper, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, people say that cubists are rubbish because they can't draw faces, and the army consists of only generals and grunts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Vilthis's national animal is the Merlion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Dictatorship of the Proletariat.

Vilthis is ranked 4,733^rd in the world and 14^th in The Internationale for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 60.67 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
