OverviewPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Republic of Ventarza is a very large, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 127 million Ventarzans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.6%.

The strong Ventarzan economy, worth 4.85 trillion Euro's a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 38,213 Euro's, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 203,864 per year while the poor average 3,764, a ratio of 54.2 to 1.

You can't put down the nation's attitude to pet health, nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, and the transit system is throwing poor people under the bus. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Ventarza's national animal is the Tiger, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Ventarza is ranked 269,331st in the world and 233rd in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -4.73 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
