The Red Queendom of Vold is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Queen Iselin I with an iron fist, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, complete lack of prisons, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.137 billion Voldish are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Velara. The average income tax rate is 77.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Voldish economy, worth 106 trillion Kronor a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 93,557 Kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

It's a jungle out there, bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, sections of the police receive paramilitary training, and the people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vold's national animal is the firebird, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Vold is ranked 42,415^th in the world and 47^th in Aesica for Lowest Crime Rates, with 81.56 law-abiding acts per hour.
