The Republic of Vlohia is a small, safe nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 36 million Vlohians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 63.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Vlohian economy, worth 1.32 trillion Vlochian Lei a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,692 Vlochian Lei, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rich and poor neighborhoods are divided by the Red Line, professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials, the government seizes all major gold finds, and research into 'designer babies' is banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vlohia's national animal is the Phoenix, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Vlohia is ranked 62,245^th in the world and 546^th in Europe for Most Cultured, scoring 70 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
