The Empire of Veremur is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Damien Koschei with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, unlimited-speed roads, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 40.063 billion Veremurians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Spirituality and Law & Order are also considered important, while Environment and Education are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sang City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Veremurian economy, worth an astonishing 20,999 trillion Koscheis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is a breathtaking 524,163 Koscheis, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,371,779 per year while the poor average 33,031, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Bleach is the nation's most common pesticide, a full moon at night lets economists sleep tight, being nicknamed "Orange Face" has done Damien Koschei's credibility no favours, and an increasing number of citizens believe the world is flat. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Veremur's national animal is the wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Koscheism.

Veremur is ranked 332,623^rd in the world and 3^rd in Sol III for Nicest Citizens, with 0.02 average smiles per day.
