The Empire of Vangaziland is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Helios Vang with a fair hand, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, complete lack of prisons, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 18.49 billion Vangazis 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Emeros. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Vangazilandian economy, worth a remarkable 4,661 trillion Gazis a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 252,134 Gazis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is still not known if the commander in chief outranks the supreme commander, the latest electric jet fighter has almost enough battery charge to reach cruising altitude -- provided you don't use the radar, elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, and lovesick people are told 'it's not them, it's you'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vangaziland's national animal is the Vannish lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vangaziland is ranked 167,140th in the world and 60th in Esportiva for Most Stationary, with 110.11032536268 days.
