The Federal Republic of Varithnia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Executive Council with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.583 billion Varithnians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government is primarily concerned with Healthcare, although Welfare, Education, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 68.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Varithnian economy, worth 150 trillion Dezans a year, is highly specialized and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 32,829 Dezans, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, the pursuit of wanted criminals ends at the entrance of the pay'n'spray garage as police refuse to enter any private property, and internet searches for the inventor of the three-wheeled steam-powered Varithnian weed picker are way up. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Varithnia's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Varithnia is ranked 207,811^th in the world and 4,852^nd in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 35.92 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
