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

The Federal Republic of Vesuva is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Xander Maestros with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 16.743 billion Vesuvans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Changeling. The average income tax rate is 99.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Vesuvan economy, worth a remarkable 2,989 trillion Vesuvan dollars 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 Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 178,548 Vesuvan dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Anything is permissible when wearing latex gloves, every week is blindness awareness week, dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, and tourists ask to stay in the same pleasant accommodations where foreign prisoners are kept. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vesuva's national animal is the Scorpion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vesuva is ranked 275,823^rd in the world and 13,239^th in The North Pacific for Highest Crime Rates, with 1.4 crimes per hour.
