The Principality of Vrysse is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Little Princess Claire Donnée with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, digital currency, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 1.081 billion Vrysseans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lyonesse. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 23.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Vryssean economy, worth 99.7 trillion sequins a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Gambling. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 92,239 sequins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 311,658 per year while the poor average 20,191, a ratio of 15.4 to 1.

Orthopaedics patients often have a bounce in their step, only adults may purchase violent video games, politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech, and janitors and factory workers are often better educated than the bosses they work for. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Vrysse's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Vrys Church.

Vrysse is ranked 70,399^th in the world and 89^th in Refugia for Highest Drug Use, scoring 232.7 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
