The Scattered Lands of Volatavia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Donny Foster with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, devout population of 2.612 billion Volatavians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bluebill. The average income tax rate is 73.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Volatavian economy, worth 182 trillion crowns a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,931 crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Volatavia's national animal is the flightless mallard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
