The Confederacy of Vyerossia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by The People with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.217 billion Verusans 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, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novygrad. The average income tax rate is 81.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Verusan economy, worth 59.4 trillion Yedinitsas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is 48,772 Yedinitsas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, dangerous criminals are often 'accidentally' sent on one-way trips to Maxtopia, and flash floods that dams could have controlled regularly ravage small towns in mountain valleys. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vyerossia's national animal is the Seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Vyerossia is ranked 282,208^th in the world and 65^th in Saint Helene for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -12.33 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
