The Empire of Vantuai is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 735 million Vantuaians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vantuaia City. The average income tax rate is 45.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Vantuaian economy, worth 55.0 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 74,846 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's nothing more gay than bleeding for your nation, bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, 'Police Academy 36' and 'Sharknados On A Plane' are vying for top spot at the box-office, and there have been reports of people marrying housepets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Vantuai's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vantuai is ranked 37,363^rd in the world and 4^th in Atropia for Most Cultured, scoring 76 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
