The Most Serene Republic of Venezia Pacifica is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Enrico Dándolo with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 3.382 billion Veneziani enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Venezia. The average income tax rate is 92.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Venezian economy, worth 348 trillion Grossoes a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 103,018 Grossoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign investment has dropped to a trickle after laws were passed preventing investors from taking their earnings abroad, the new Liquor Legitimacy Office is besieged with job applications from people who have experience in "statistical sampling methods", wind farms are erected on shuttered oil platforms, and planespotters are emigrating in droves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Venezia Pacifica's national animal is the Lion of Saint Mark, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Unitarianism.

Venezia Pacifica is ranked 40,991^st in the world and 2,003^rd in the South Pacific for Most Income Equality, scoring 64.88 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
