The Supreme United Confederacy of Vernalfalls is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Emperor-General Lee Urdan with a fair hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 17.375 billion Vernalans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vernalfalls City. The average income tax rate is 63.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Vernalfallsian economy, worth 515 trillion Urdans a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, Retail, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 29,669 Urdans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's a shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt, inheritance tax has recently been abolished, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, and a large concrete wall is being built around the country's borders. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vernalfalls's national animal is the Chellacian frog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Fallism.
