The Republic of Virideth is a tiny, cultured nation, renowned for its burgeoning Wooleren Beast population. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 10 million Viridians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 47.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Vireth economy, worth 393 billion Viras a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,391 Viras, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's taxpayers pay for foreign governments' extravagances, Leader's opponents have adopted dogs to chase away the mailman, elections have been outlawed, and the number of eyes rolled per maths lesson is increasing exponentially. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Virideth's national animal is the Wooleren Beast.

Virideth is ranked 260,772^nd in the world and 600^th in Europe for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -4.59 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
