The Kingdom of Versuria is a fledgling, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, public floggings, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 6 million Versurians 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 relatively small, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 10.2%.

The Versurian economy, worth 277 billion V$s a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Trout Farming. Average income is 46,282 V$s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

The streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, Versurian farm salmon are known for being both horribly diseased and remarkably acrobatic, net monetary worth and net moral worth are considered to be directly equivalent, and kids are arrested at gunpoint for playing with toy rifles. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force. Versuria's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Versuria is ranked 132,449^th in the world and 8^th in The Cuckoos Egg for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 1,772.63 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
