The Commonwealth of Vaasenburg is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 844 million Vaasenburgians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gracemeria. The average income tax rate is 74.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Vaasenburgian economy, worth 77.6 trillion Vilkas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 91,970 Vilkas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The army consists of only generals and grunts, doctors accused of having no heart reply that cardiology isn't their speciality, proper policy proposals prerequire professional peer-reviewed papers, and on graduation day the hats thrown in the air fly high enough to stun passing pigeons. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vaasenburg's national animal is the Broad Tailed Hummingbird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Vaasenburg is ranked 284,329th in the world and 396th in Nordic Lands for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -13.42 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
