The Aquarian Queendom of Venulia is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Lady Venulia with an even hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, enslaved workforce, and punitive income tax rates. The humorless, devout population of 6.434 billion Aquarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aquina. The average income tax rate is 77.5%.

The all-consuming Aquarian economy, worth 596 trillion Trans-Aquarian labour credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 92,709 Trans-Aquarian labour credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, the government has hired out-of-work fashion designers to design purses for men, murder rates are on the rise as the popularity of soylent products grows, and human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Venulia's national animal is the Seahorse, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Venulianism.

Venulia is ranked 44,506^th in the world and 1^st in Black Bear for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 189.8 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
