The Federation of Velspira is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 22.903 billion Velspirans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Velspirandi. The average income tax rate is 67.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Velspiran economy, worth a remarkable 1,302 trillion ruples a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 56,872 ruples, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has an international reputation for compassion, recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable, citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, and Velspira's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region. Crime is totally unknown. Velspira's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Velspira is ranked 5,995th in the world and 27th in Union of Free Nations for Most Stationary, with 2,972.66476416 days.
