The Dominion of Vanderblight is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Linden Smith with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.233 billion Vanderblightians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brightwood. The average income tax rate is 73.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Vanderblightian economy, worth 365 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 113,120 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Nothing gets the party jumping like Linden Smith specifying how high, visiting dignitaries make excuses to leave functions early and head to the nearest pub, the government maintains a Department of Skulduggery, and pocket calculators are seen as status symbols for the ostentatiously wealthy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vanderblight's national animal is the Timber Wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Pack of the Wolf.
Vanderblight is ranked 74,729th in the world and 1,666th in The East Pacific for Safest, scoring 93.14 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
