The Supranational Confederation of Veleste is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Moro-Aldo with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, otherworldly petting zoo, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 15.07 billion Velestians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port of Caneva. The income tax rate is 100.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Velestean economy, worth a remarkable 4,469 trillion labour notes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 296,550 labour notes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, stone wrist watches that weigh 20lb are the latest trend, passwords to nuclear codes must now contain upper and lower case characters, and human tissue is grown in vats as a delicacy as well as for transplants. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Veleste's national animal is the Buteogallus solitarius, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Veleste is ranked 3,826th in the world and 3rd in Geopolity for Lowest Crime Rates, with 123.48 law-abiding acts per hour.
