The Liberationist Union of United Vietussia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Arkady Albert Sokoloff with an even hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, public floggings, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 14.826 billion Vietussians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hankow. The average income tax rate is 72.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Vietussian economy, worth a remarkable 2,354 trillion Moneypennies a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 158,805 Moneypennies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Muscular women are banned from competing in sporting competitions, army rations are served on silver platters, pharmacists increasingly claim they are morally obligated to take long lunches, and travellers are often forcibly evicted by torch-bearing mobs. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Vietussia's national animal is the Chupacabra, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Dryzaty.

United Vietussia is ranked 109,651^st in the world and 400^th in Europeia for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,778.18 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
