The Grand Parliamentary Imperium of Votokia is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by President Jacob Janson with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 850 million Votokians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tovanhaw. The average income tax rate is 19.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Votokian economy, worth 93.7 trillion Votokian Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,228 Votokian Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Nano-Black Horses are the current fad sweeping the nation, young soldiers are shocked to discover there are no 'safe spaces' on a battlefield, the children of Votokia are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence, and therapists dispense hugs for heroin dealers and cuddles for crackheads. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Votokia's national animal is the Black Horse.

Votokia is ranked 64,872^nd in the world and 355^th in Europeia for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 1,894.09 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
