The Empire of Viletta is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Viletta Nu with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.007 billion Vilettans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Healthcare and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nu. The average income tax rate is 75.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vilettan economy, worth a remarkable 2,708 trillion Nukums a year, is highly specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 180,505 Nukums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Sending sick politicians "Get Well Soon" cards is considered bribery, monarchs only get custody of the royal crown on holidays and weekends, politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, and students who do not recite the national anthem each morning have to drop and give their teacher 50. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Viletta's national animal is the Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is None.

Viletta is ranked 1,701st in the world and 102nd in Lazarus for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 16,515.76 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
