The Rogue Nation of Vintauk is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Leader with an iron fist, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, anti-smoking policies, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.883 billion Vintaukians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 86.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vintaukian economy, worth 502 trillion Guilders a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 174,256 Guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Condos feature wall-mounted cages containing endangered animals, one complaint of Vintauk's new periodic table is it's easy to confuse fearlessleaderium with gloriousleaderium, organ donation is compulsory, and reddish-brown is the new black. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vintauk's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Vintauk is ranked 9,945th in the world and 177th in the West Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,593.7 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
