The Federal Republic of Vanutuland is a mid-sized, orderly nation, renowned for its avant-garde cinema, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 62 million Vanutulanders are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 46.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Vanutu economy, worth 2.25 trillion Vanutu Pounds a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,234 Vanutu Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bike rage is all the rage, kids learn to count without the numbers '0' or '1', the importance of winning Olympic gold medals is indoctrinated from an early age, and parking lots are littered with coffee cups and doughnut crumbs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vanutuland's national animal is the Carp, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Vanutuland is ranked 223,860^th in the world and 425^th in Edoca for Least Corrupt Governments, with 92.13 percentage of bribes refused.
