The Republic of Venninak is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, devout population of 943 million Venninakians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wario. The average income tax rate is 51.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Venninakian economy, worth 90.6 trillion VANNS 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 Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 96,050 VANNS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bitter pastors forced to officiate gay marriage 'accidentally' pronounce couples "husband and abomination", orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents, gay hospital patients are labelled with a pink triangle to alert staff of their substandard blood, and the Holy Office of the Inquisition is the highest court in the land. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Venninak's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Venninak is ranked 66,046^th in the world and 2,200^th in Balder for Most Income Equality, scoring 53.02 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
