The Republic of Storage Vessel is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its burgeoning Trout population. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 622 million Storage Vesselians are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.2%.

The strong Storage Vesselian economy, worth 43.2 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Soda Sales, and Trout Farming. Average income is 69,447 Credits, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade, and college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys. Crime is well under control. Storage Vessel's national animal is the Trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Storage Vessel is ranked 131,516th in the world and 20th in Blue Chevron for Most Extreme, scoring 20.45 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
