The Great Socialist Nation of Vonx is a gargantuan, cultured nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 14.236 billion Loaves enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Bakery. The average income tax rate is 94.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Loafer economy, worth a remarkable 1,404 trillion Slices a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is 98,651 Slices, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A government program is underway to revitalize Vonx's beaches, time flies when you're not having fun, children's TV shows are having a gay old time, and government ministers sport new billboards that read 'Will Trade Votes for Private Members' Bill Support'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vonx's national animal is the Spookje, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vonx is ranked 287,022^nd in the world and 1,304^th in The Communist Bloc for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -16.61 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
