The Republic of Venenistria is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 338 million Venenistrians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sakjinsan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 35.0%.

The very strong Venenistrian economy, worth 22.0 trillion Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 64,964 Pesos, with the richest citizens earning 8.0 times as much as the poorest.

Disability advocates are not amused that they are told to be dependent on Venenistrians's kindness, no one is worried about government policies any more, authorities are looking for a stool pigeon to rat out who is stealing food from pigeon toilets, and political gridlock ensues as even the most innocuous legislation is vetoed by the Supreme Court for potential civil rights violations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Venenistria's national animal is the White-tailed eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Venenistria is ranked 11,388^th in the world and 220^th in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 5,893.6 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
