The Empire of Vosnium is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Prometheus with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.041 billion Vosniumians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carcosa. The average income tax rate is 97.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Vosniumian economy, worth a remarkable 3,075 trillion Vos a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 382,429 Vos, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Corporate lawyers are switching careers to the more lucrative field of green politics, Big Belly is watching you, foreign students are expected to have a Kegmeister Grade Average of 36-24-36 to qualify for university, and printing out government documents requires the approval of at least three admins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vosnium's national animal is the Swan, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Children Of Prometheus.

Vosnium is ranked 52,358^th in the world and 80^th in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Most Extreme, scoring 30.99 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
