The Republic of Varanil is a mammoth, genial nation, remarkable for its digital currency and parental licensing program. The compassionate, hard-working population of 6.243 billion Varanilians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 22.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Varanilian economy, worth 345 trillion guilders a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 55,370 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Drug lords often avoid prison time by teaching "chemistry" classes to underprivileged youth, CEOs can't hear the term 'Fire Sale' without bursting into tears, rumours have it that a secret police is responsible for the recent spate of missing persons, and most believe it doesn't hurt to embrace free trade. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Varanil's national animal is the beaver, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Varanil is ranked 248,776^th in the world and 34^th in Lassa for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -5.81 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
