“Let the dove guide us”

The Commonwealth of Vesaed is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its national health service, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 195 million Vesaedians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 39.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Vesaedian economy, worth 8.97 trillion Vvers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 45,997 Vvers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Builders spend more time negotiating "tasteful architecture" than on actual construction, passionate nomination battles are often as intense as general elections, teenage girls worry that they'll be unpopular if their skirts aren't short enough, and families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vesaed's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Vesaed is ranked 101,180^th in the world and 112^th in Bozarkia for Most Authoritarian, with 943.53 milliStalins.
