The Kingdom of Verlian is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Verian with a fair hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, anti-smoking policies, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 4.366 billion Verlians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Verdantia. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Verlianian economy, worth 766 trillion Verlian Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 175,483 Verlian Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail, the police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs, arbitration is mightier than the sword, and those who cut young children are told to cut it out. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Verlian's national animal is the Harp Seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Verlian is ranked 3,624^th in the world and 72^nd in Europe for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 9,606.44 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
