The People's Republic of Viritanskyy is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President Vasylik Yusufay with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.856 billion Viritanskyyans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Konetsk. The average income tax rate is 88.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Viritanskyyan economy, worth 421 trillion Viritanskyyan Rubles 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 Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 147,549 Viritanskyyan Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Saturday morning cartoons feature full frontal nudity, petting zoos have loose fingers strewn about, citizens are deployed to barren deserts to protect small territorial claims, and the government is spending millions on alternative clean-burning fuels. Crime is totally unknown. Viritanskyy's national animal is the Phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Viritanskyy is ranked 11,476^th in the world and 17^th in Horizon for Most Cultured, scoring 108 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
