The Crumbling Empire of Holy Violetia is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Empress Violet with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 11.643 billion Holy Violetians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Packard Bell Point. The average income tax rate is 75.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Holy Violetian economy, worth 201 trillion UA Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 17,287 UA Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, citizens who don't follow Violetism are closely monitored for signs of self-harm, law schools are hurrying to teach the "prank defense" to their students, and the Holy Violetian government claim that Holy Violetians are oppressed out of love. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy Violetia's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Violetism.

Holy Violetia is ranked 105,296^th in the world and 2^nd in Satoshi for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 835.06 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
