The Union of Velichye is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Okina with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, frequent executions, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-working, devout population of 4.801 billion Velichians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Healthcare, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ulysses. The average income tax rate is 55.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Velichyean economy, worth 548 trillion Serpiis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,344 Serpiis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military is researching proton packs and PK-meters to combat "unseen enemy forces", the Finance Ministry posts hourly updates on where taxpayer money is spent, President Okina is strangely popular with male politicians' wives, and psychiatrists bizarrely accompany President Okina to meetings with foreign heads of state. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Velichye's national animal is the Sea Serpent, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Velichye is ranked 119,187^th in the world and 84^th in Forest for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,738.35 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
