The Refounded Nation of Vashnal is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Councilor Vashnal with an even hand, and renowned for its strictly enforced bedtime, enslaved workforce, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 20.515 billion Vashnalli have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Evermore. The average income tax rate is 76.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vashnalli economy, worth a remarkable 3,942 trillion Vashnali dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 192,178 Vashnali dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Daisy chain gangs plant flowers and pick up litter, weird or unusual crimes merit cruel and unusual punishments, Jack Russells have proven to be terrible spies, and unwilling fathers wish they had looked for a late-night pharmacy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vashnal's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Vashi'ism.

Vashnal is ranked 17,969^th in the world and 14^th in Geopolity for Lowest Crime Rates, with 91.44 law-abiding acts per hour.
