The Semi-autonomous Region of Vardinya is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its burgeoning raven population. The hard-working, democratic population of 31.601 billion Vardinyans enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pripel. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 24.3%.

The very strong Vardinyan economy, worth a remarkable 1,815 trillion paffnars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 57,456 paffnars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 175,519 per year while the poor average 14,578, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Children are raised bilingual from an early age, the Federal Council of Vardinya has been announced as the new Head of State, the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, and the government is seen to favor Catholics. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Vardinya's national animal is the raven.

Vardinya is ranked 136,820^th in the world and 2^nd in A Taco Archipelago for Highest Average Incomes, with 57,456.99 Standard Monetary Units.
