The Illustrious Kingdom of Vancricia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Aesanro Valer with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 2.555 billion Vancricians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Astervieid. The average income tax rate is 69.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vancrician economy, worth 328 trillion ⋁ectras a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,560 ⋁ectras, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, CEOs and corporate executives are frequently found striking for better stock options, glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, and seasonal hay-fever sufferers are attending government drug counselling sessions to get free doughnuts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Vancricia's national animal is the Zrverio Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Vancricia is ranked 62,306^th in the world and 1,857^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.44 law-abiding acts per hour.
