The Republic of Vara 51 is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, digital currency, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 3.24 billion Vara 51ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Vara 51ian economy, worth 347 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 107,227 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.
Flash floods that dams could have controlled regularly ravage small towns in mountain valleys, grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly, new pilots are regularly reminded that they are more expendable than their planes, and acrimonious legal battles result during divorce proceedings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vara 51's national animal is the dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Vara 51 is ranked 101,950th in the world and 3,289th in Lazarus for Smartest Citizens, with 32.97 quips per hour.
