The Kingdom of Vilender is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Haemus II Athanasiadis with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, frequent executions, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, devout population of 4.863 billion Vilenderians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atreum. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vilenderian economy, worth 547 trillion Crons a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,575 Crons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Movie references are legally admissible in court, billions of Crons are spent to take high-quality photos of the Eagle Nebula, televangelists flaunt their expensive cars when they attend charity events, and it isn't only obsequious grandees who produce a lot of manure at state occasions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vilender's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Vilender is ranked 282,962nd in the world and 4,943rd in The East Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -12.25 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
