The Occultia Automata of Vleerian is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Vleerian Ravagia with an iron fist, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, public floggings, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 4.348 billion swarm are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atrangador. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 62.5%.

The frighteningly efficient the swarm economy, worth 865 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 198,964 Credits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,794,433 per year while the poor average 2,698, a ratio of 665 to 1.

No cul-de-sac or trailer park is complete without a gambling parlor, other people's happiness is the biggest cause of the swarm unhappiness, disposable antiseptic wipes are considered a social necessity, and Vleerian Ravagia's recent "I have a dream that we will fight them by raking muck on the beaches" speech seems a little derivative to many. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Vleerian's national animal is the Aisel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Curphosim.

Vleerian is ranked 78,820^th in the world and 73^rd in The Brotherhood of Malice for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,696.42 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
