The Kingdom of Vaskeden is a huge, safe nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 629 million Vaskenese enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alesund. The average income tax rate is 36.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Vaskedenian economy, worth 41.8 trillion Roras a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,491 Roras, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's nothing more gay than bleeding for your nation, hidden bedroom-cams are installed to catch mothers doing their kids' homework, Jennifer Government is a bestseller, and on-duty Air Vaskeden flight attendants are usually seen napping in first class. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vaskeden's national animal is the Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vaskeden is ranked 168,375^th in the world and 6,748^th in The East Pacific for Highest Crime Rates, with 2.22 Crimes Per Hour.
