The Democratic States of Vooila is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, national health service, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 777 million Vooilans 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 prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Law & Order, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 42.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Vooilan economy, worth 35.0 trillion catties a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 45,082 catties, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Peace talks occasionally rack up a higher body count than the wars they seek to stop, the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet, prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, and everybody's got wood thanks to Leader. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vooila's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Vooila is ranked 239,133rd in the world and 6,270th in Balder for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -10.1 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
