Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The United Socialist States of Ventera is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Lucifia Gale with a fair hand, and remarkable for its national health service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.053 billion Venterans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Galedom. The average income tax rate is 86.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Venteran economy, worth 99.9 trillion Fiamins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Trout Farming. Average income is 94,895 Fiamins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

With increasingly clear skies nobody seems to mind the electricity bill going through the roof, organised sports are frowned upon as frivolous, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and recent protests against birds flying too low have resulted in bloodshed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ventera's national animal is the Snow Leapord, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ventera is ranked 174,838^th in the world and 157^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 840.2 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
