The Monarchist Exoterper of Vervian Desire is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Fazial fon Heppel with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, infamous sell-swords, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.404 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, although Law & Order, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. 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 307 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.
