The Democratic Republic of Vlaska is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Vlasko Vlaskovski with an iron fist, and remarkable for its smutty television, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 14.782 billion Vlaskans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Singidunum. The average income tax rate is 90.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vlaskan economy, worth a remarkable 1,768 trillion Dinars 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 dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 119,650 Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Left-wing militias train children how to properly burn down banks, Vlasko Vlaskovski has been nicknamed 'Robomop', a niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up, and the studies of art and philosophy are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vlaska's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Vlaska is ranked 8,789^th in the world and 76^th in Europeia for Safest, scoring 123 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
