The Republic of Vostokiya is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 2.333 billion Vostokiyans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 49.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Vostokiyan economy, worth 47.0 trillion Vostokiyan rubles a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 20,163 Vostokiyan rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vostokiya's national animal is the Eurasian brown bear.

Vostokiya is ranked 188,094^th in the world and 719^th in Concord for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 164.81 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
