The Republic of Vross is a large, orderly nation, notable for its frequent executions, ubiquitous missile silos, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 114 million Vrossians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 67.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Vrossian economy, worth 6.55 trillion Doubloons a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Tourism. Average income is 57,428 Doubloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Skin-tone prom dresses are more unpopular than ever, the government is interviewing for thousands of 'Religious Censor' positions, pilots always remember to send their doctors a Maxxmas card, and auctioneers practice saying "lightly used tank" with a straight face. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vross's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vross is ranked 43,711^th in the world and 19^th in Aeternas for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,144 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
