The Holy Mother's State of Volkovgorod is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Tsarina Lumi Borislav with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and frequent executions. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 8.405 billion Volkovians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Industry, although Education, Welfare, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Okuriyama. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 28.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Volkovian economy, worth 953 trillion Tomis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 113,498 Tomis, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 409,698 per year while the poor average 22,461, a ratio of 18.2 to 1.

Artificial intelligences seeking exciting work are overcome with ennui, group hugs break out during floor votes, the government says that Possession is nine-tenths of the Lore, and peace talks occasionally rack up a higher body count than the wars they seek to stop. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Volkovgorod's national animal is the Imperial Dire Wolf and its national religion is Orthodox Solitheism.

Volkovgorod is ranked 11,593^rd in the world and 2^nd in the Yomese Empire for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 54.76 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
