The Vadean Modality of Mithridatium is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 10.013 billion Vadeans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mrainelial. The average income tax rate is 40.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Vadean economy, worth 319 trillion Units a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 31,919 Units, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Visual acuity is worsening amongst teenagers, internet moderators work overtime to remove memes comparing Leader to cartoon bears, the government is funding experimental battery technology while the power grid continues to crumble, and dealers go from pushing drugs to pushing up daisies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mithridatium's national animal is the Ringlet, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Mithridatium is ranked 18,597th in the world and 3rd in Cymopolia for Most Stationary, with 1,671.03440275952 days.
