The Kingdom of Vedenmark is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Minister Williams with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, complete lack of prisons, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, devout population of 10.986 billion Vemateses enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vedenmarkian City. The average income tax rate is 80.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vedenmarkian economy, worth a remarkable 1,196 trillion Steroes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,943 Steroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, dark net forums trade the encryption keys to immortality, atheistic refugees haven't got a prayer of being granted asylum, and the ongoing space elevator construction project has elevated the national debt to all new levels. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vedenmark's national animal is the Vematian Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christian Protestantism.

Vedenmark is ranked 294,515^th in the world and 245^th in Aesica for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -11.36 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
