The Republic of Vurk is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Director with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, humorless population of 5.502 billion Vurks are prohibited from doing almost everything but make sure no one in government gets away with anything either.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kinigin. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Vurkian economy, worth a remarkable 1,451 trillion VCRS a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 263,849 VCRS, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The sound of wooden legs echo throughout Vurk after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, citizens are grown in vats, prison walls have had to be modified to keep parkour-trained criminals from escaping, and serial commas clarify the relationship between one's lackeys, the taxpayers, and kinsfolk. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vurk's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is forgotten.
Vurk is ranked 905th in the world and 25th in Europe for Lowest Crime Rates, with 169.53 law-abiding acts per hour.
