The Federative Banana of Vodafones is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Chair with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.539 billion Vodafonesians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Therlonkia. The average income tax rate is 20.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Vodafonesian economy, worth 127 trillion Fonas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,615 Fonas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Sports journals are full of uplifting puff-pieces on professional boxers, ambitious "businessmen" use their children to sell and advertise their products, military spending is on the increase, and religious education is a new government priority. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Vodafones's national animal is the Polar Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Bananaism.

Vodafones is ranked 27,354^th in the world and 32^nd in Canada for Nicest Citizens, with 20.7 average smiles per day.
