The Free Imperial Republic of Vectrova is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by SoaD with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 38.956 billion Vectrovans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grandville. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Vectrovan economy, worth an astonishing 15,599 trillion velts a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 400,448 velts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Estate agents justify funky smells by revealing how often the previous owners showered, museums offer moralization or your money back, the government regularly reassures citizens that there are no monsters under their beds, and the carbon tax fund gladly supplies warm blankets when the poor can't pay their heating bills. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vectrova's national animal is the gingerbread man, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Shadism.
Vectrova is ranked 83,559th in the world and 1,230th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Black Market, with 4.42 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
