The Second Republic of Veln is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The 'Provisonal' Council of Veln with an even hand, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 3.403 billion Velnish are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Duleriln. The average income tax rate is 93.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Velnish economy, worth 680 trillion Zolles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 199,902 Zolles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside, populations of two-headed Ferrets have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites, foreigners "adopt" rotund Ferrets to line the pockets of wildlife sanctuaries, and the Veln Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Veln's national animal is the Ferret, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Velmerism.

Veln is ranked 11,137^th in the world and 5^th in Trica for Lowest Crime Rates, with 104.62 law-abiding acts per hour.
