The Monarchist Exoterper of Vervian Desire is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Fazial fon Heppel with an iron fist, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol, zero percent divorce rate, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.428 billion Sonneners 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 Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of El Divervia. The average income tax rate is 72.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sonnenerieo economy, worth 310 trillion Sottas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 127,795 Sottas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Artists are pillars of society, parties that are too noisy are broken up to prevent disturbing wildlife, school lockers are filled with fancy underwear, and the nation is committed to nuclear rearmament. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vervian Desire's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Imperialis.

Vervian Desire is ranked 178,389th in the world and 3,663rd in The East Pacific for Safest, scoring 57.15 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
