The Socialist Republic of Vuilburg is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Robin with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 16.596 billion Vuilburgians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Raerlyt. The average income tax rate is 97.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Vuilburgian economy, worth a remarkable 2,873 trillion Silvers 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 173,162 Silvers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Most foreigners can't name the leader of Vuilburg, Catherine Gratwick's campaign support is considered seminal, Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, and 4-year-olds are often found reminiscing about the 'good old days'. Crime is totally unknown. Vuilburg's national animal is the flower child, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vuilburg is ranked 288,063^rd in the world and 196^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -21.4 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
