The Multiversal Archempire of Vissium is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Archemperor Vis with an iron fist, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, otherworldly petting zoo, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.469 billion Vissians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vissia. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Vissian economy, worth 218 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 148,421 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Pollution is on the rise along with government approvals of fracking projects, rumor has it that Archemperor Vis has won three lotteries in a row, anyone who sleeps in past 9am can be declared legally dead, and the restriction that you must be over 1.1 metres tall to ride a carnotaurus has recently been waived. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vissium's national animal is the Fire Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.
Vissium is ranked 291,373rd in the world and 6,458th in the Rejected Realms for Most Secular, with 7.76 Atheism Rate.
