The Nomadic People of No Vadi is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by an AI with an even hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, lack of airports, and feral children. The compassionate, humorless population of 4.68 billion No Vadians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 99.4%.

The frighteningly efficient part of No Vadi economy, worth 787 trillion liters of Water a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 168,273 liters of Water, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The national security service are a bunch of crooks, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, and fair-weather fans talk during plays while die-hard theatre enthusiasts stay at home. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. No Vadi's national animal is the jellyfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

No Vadi is ranked 331,172^nd in the world and 823^rd in Horizon for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 1,009.64 Standard Monetary Units.
