The Empire of Verconia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Vercon with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5.454 billion Verconians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Veltcona. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Verconian economy, worth a remarkable 1,554 trillion vercoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 285,091 vercoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
The new Verconian-made OS is buggier and more inconvenient than a horse-drawn carriage, people say chess victor Emperor Vercon can kill you with mind-bullets, fake designer clothes are shredded and burnt while many in the world don't have a shirt on their back, and every spring railroad foundations erode to reveal human remains. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Verconia's national animal is the Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Machina Deus.
Verconia is ranked 3,269th in the world and 89th in The East Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 239.08 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
