The Commonwealth of Vardensa is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 25.804 billion Vardensans 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 is dominated by the Department of Spirituality, although Industry, Education, and Social Policy are also considered important. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.1%.

The strong Vardensan economy, worth 873 trillion counts a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 33,846 counts, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

Concerned environmentalists wipe away their tears with tissues sourced from Tasmanian old-growth redwoods, the law says it's okay to sell a bomb to a terrorist so long as they promise not to detonate it, hundreds of thousands of convicts work as slaves in Vardensa's many privately-owned prisons, and a major religion has been named as Vardensa's national religion. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Vardensa's national animal is the tree crab, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Vardensa is ranked 253,575^th in the world and 6^th in Evergreen for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 27,382.19 Standard Monetary Units.
