The Maritime Republic of Verees Fri is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Silas Holt with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.887 billion Verees Frians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Environment, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sraebert. The average income tax rate is 90.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Verees Frian economy, worth 930 trillion braqnes a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 135,065 braqnes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The countryside is shrouded by wind farms, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Sraebert to enjoy their national art, space research funding has hit a recent high while several military bases are being closed down, and the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Verees Fri's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Verees Fri is ranked 287,427^th in the world and 6,190^th in The North Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.45 kickbacks per hour.
