The Animals' Republic of Vegaslovakia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by the Premier with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, state-planned economy, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate population of 9.182 billion Vegaslovakians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Watsongrad. The average income tax rate is 96.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Vegaslovakian economy, worth a remarkable 1,006 trillion Credit Points a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 109,639 Credit Points, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, t-shirts displaying a photo of the Premier performing the Full-Monty are selling out, edutainment video games are taking Vegaslovakia's students to the next level, and weekly religious services often resemble campaign rallies. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vegaslovakia's national animal is the Animal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Secular Misanthropy.

Vegaslovakia is ranked 197,804^th in the world and 4^th in Misanthropic Bloc for Most Politically Apathetic Citizens, with 46.97 Whatever.
