The Federal Republic of Vedenmark is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Prime Minister Williams with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, complete lack of prisons, and frequent executions. The compassionate, devout population of 7.454 billion Vemateses enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vedenmarkian City. The average income tax rate is 79.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vedenmarkian economy, worth 702 trillion Steroes a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,212 Steroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There have been reports of people marrying housepets, Vematian Eagles are frequently shot for looking at people 'in a funny way', things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, and the Vedenmark Enquirer offers weekly cash prizes for 'most blasphemous song, story, or cartoon'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vedenmark's national animal is the Vematian Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Vedenmark is ranked 132,674^th in the world and 800^th in Europeia for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 50 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
