The 🌪️cataclysmic catastrophe❄️ of Vando0sa is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Sergeant Major Sabinka with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, otherworldly petting zoo, and labour-free parental leave. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cheerful population of 27.194 billion youkai have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Industry, and Environment are also considered important, while Law & Order and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Serico. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient youkai economy, worth an astonishing 26,314 trillion ceks 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. 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 a breathtaking 967,661 ceks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Most voters only see their chosen representative visit once every election cycle, with increasingly clear skies nobody seems to mind the electricity bill going through the roof, posters on 'Youkai Values' advise against being proud of Vando0sa, and it is common to see Maxémon Trainer listed on youkai resumés. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Vando0sa's national animal is the catfish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Paganism.

Vando0sa is ranked 162nd in the world and 5th in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Fattest Citizens, with 96.19 Obesity Rate.
