The Federation of VTML is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Ieinu with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 15.866 billion VTMLians 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, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Japari. The average income tax rate is 96.8%.

The frighteningly efficient VTMLian economy, worth a remarkable 2,527 trillion Sytquots a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 159,320 Sytquots, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Turning the other cheek is accompanied by a polite letter of complaint, The Pipe Bomb Makers' Pop-Up Book can be found in preschool libraries, the government spends billions to retrieve millions worth of asteroid gold, and the government has spread itself thin. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. VTML's national animal is the Canis Lupus Familaris, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

VTML is ranked 308,078^th in the world and 1,565^th in the Outback for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -23 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
