The Empire of Penumbrae Veil is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Black Queen Zornie with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and national health service. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 4.044 billion Veilians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Villinhal. The average income tax rate is 91.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Veilian economy, worth 576 trillion bits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 142,484 bits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Exports are stamped with "made by the invisible hand you commies", people can get away with murder these days, the 'sing-a-long with Black Queen Zornie' album is a popular souvenir, and belief that Black Queen Zornie is a lizard-person from outer space has reached an all-time high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Penumbrae Veil's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Sibylism.
Penumbrae Veil is ranked 263,869th in the world and 3,697th in the Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -206.44 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
