The Commonly Referred Federation of Ventakia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Alexander Wells with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 3.154 billion Ventakians 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, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Entaka. The average income tax rate is 84.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ventakian economy, worth 458 trillion Velmarks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,379 Velmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

History textbook pages are used as impromptu tissues by distraught students, faceless corporations are expected to assume parental responsibility over millions of teenagers, the government tries not to listen to the people unless it absolutely has to, and voters must frequently select what they view as the lesser of two evils on the ballot. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ventakia's national animal is the Ca 1, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ventakia is ranked 286,871^st in the world and 6,178^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -16.78 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
