The Vast Vole Confederacy of Vapidicity is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Mz Leader with a fair hand, and renowned for its national health service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 16.592 billion Vapidites are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Idunno. The average income tax rate is 56.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Vapidicityian economy, worth a remarkable 1,071 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,573 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Counselors diagnose their clients with motherboard complexes, things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, vegetables are crisper thanks to CRISPR, and government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities. Crime is totally unknown. Vapidicity's national animal is the vole, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Instagram.

Vapidicity is ranked 243,837th in the world and 11th in Fifth Wall for Most Primitive, scoring -135.49 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
