The Incorporated States of Virgnia is a large, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 197 million Virgnians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.8%.

The powerhouse Virgnian economy, worth 15.9 trillion Eurodollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 80,912 Eurodollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 238,196 per year while the poor average 21,636, a ratio of 11.0 to 1.

Underage drinkers are dragged through the streets and put in the stocks, the government keeps introducing new foreign species to combat the previous ones it has introduced, no animal is considered endangered if there's another that looks kind of like it, and the weather in Virgnia City is always 'pigeons with a chance of droppings'. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Virgnia's national animal is the Eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Virgnia is ranked 78,638th in the world and 1,669th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 68 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
