The Kingdom of Vasloria is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by King Saxton with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.135 billion Vaslorians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Vaslorian economy, worth a remarkable 1,443 trillion silverpieces a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 202,258 silverpieces, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,156,503 per year while the poor average 17,106, a ratio of 67.6 to 1.

Sales of fishnet stockings have reached a record high, emergency responders spend more time in the air than giving air, school nurse's offices feature full-service operating suites, and the free market's hand is quite visible. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vasloria's national animal is the fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Vasloria is ranked 8,395^th in the world and 3^rd in The Empire of Walbard for Largest Black Market, with 728 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
