The Federal Republic of Veretstania is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Evelyn Eltanin Voltan with a fair hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.708 billion Veretstanians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dekaster. The average income tax rate is 70.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Veretstanian economy, worth 593 trillion Keflings a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 126,166 Keflings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military has forsaken terrestrial warfare, seasonal hay-fever sufferers are attending government drug counselling sessions to get free doughnuts, popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs, and scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Veretstania's national animal is the Golden Parakeet, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is None.

Veretstania is ranked 196,909th in the world and 6th in Southern Equatorial Council for Most Stationary, with 51.60773085992 days.
