The Empire of Vanevils is a very large, cultured nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 217 million Vanevilsians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The relatively small, socially-minded government prioritizes Administration, with Welfare, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 28.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Vanevilsian economy, worth 18.3 trillion vanes shards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,250 vanes shards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ten-year-olds regularly found their own political parties, the military's newest anti-tank strategy is throwing a landmine like a frisbee, destitute athletes are forced to train in the street, and companies have begun running campaigns to stop people from remembering their brand name. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Vanevils's national animal is the elfin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vanevils is ranked 278,428^th in the world and 31^st in HVMUN for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 25.41 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
