The Free and holy nation of Velstrania is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Holy Mazhrit Emrae nos Novaris with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, complete lack of prisons, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-working, democratic population of 8.916 billion Velsturmanyi live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sondestadt. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Velstranian economy, worth a remarkable 1,069 trillion drals a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 119,921 drals, with the richest citizens earning 6.6 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's diplomats shake hands with those whose hands are drenched in the blood of innocents, raver DJ XStacy holds multiple medical degrees in chillaxing, military spending is on the increase, and the nation is stuck in permanent election mode as politicians demand constant do-overs. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Velstrania's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Faith of Velstur.

Velstrania is ranked 260,774^th in the world and 13^th in Varathron for Lowest Crime Rates, with 45.6 law-abiding acts per hour.
