The Republic of Verderiesdre is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.105 billion Verderians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berevesk. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Verderian economy, worth 126 trillion Sherlings a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 114,887 Sherlings, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 392,809 per year while the poor average 24,704, a ratio of 15.9 to 1.

The military has grudgingly released all top secret information in an effort for greater transparency, students abandon classrooms for online education, there's a lot of hot air coming from the Capitol Building, and the new cheese tax is colloquially known as "wheel welfare". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Verderiesdre's national animal is the Arctic Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Verderiesdre is ranked 72,187^th in the world and 3,296^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring 68.66 on the Hayek Index.
