The Empire of Veremur is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Damien Koschei with an iron fist, and remarkable for its fear of technology, smutty television, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 34.912 billion Veremurians 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 tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Spirituality and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment and Education receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sang City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Veremurian economy, worth an astonishing 17,170 trillion Koscheis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 491,824 Koscheis, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,277,197 per year while the poor average 28,057, a ratio of 116 to 1.

It's said that a Veremurian always pays his debts with significant compounding, withdrawal of support for drug addicts is leaving many with cold sweats, city sidewalks are crowded with overweight people, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Veremur's national animal is the wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Koscheism.

Veremur is ranked 28^th in the world and 1^st in Sol III for Most Corrupt Governments, with 1,826.49 kickbacks per hour.
