The Republic of Veelania is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Winston Hinchcliffe II with a fair hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.842 billion Veelanians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Litunalia. The average income tax rate is 74.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Veelanian economy, worth 232 trillion Veelanian stips a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 126,472 Veelanian stips, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political candidates who don't release their birth certificates are presumed to have been born in Maxtopia, prisoners have been known to host cooking and home décor television shows, the government is telling wizards to put their heart into their work, and Winston Hinchcliffe II seems to wear red a lot these days. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Veelania's national animal is the ferret, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Veelania is ranked 183,384th in the world and 6,861st in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 32,124.07 Standard Monetary Units.
