The United Federations of Vooperia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Spike Viper with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, ban on automobiles, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate population of 11.907 billion Vooperians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vooperia City. The average income tax rate is 73.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Vooperian economy, worth a remarkable 1,542 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 129,564 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Generals have trouble barking orders over the sound of thundering artillery, shady doctors seem to have impeccable records, the amount welfare recipients spend on fertilizer has exploded, and the government response to disaster victims starving for bread is "let them eat stale cake". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Vooperia's national animal is the Spiked Viper, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Vooperism.
Vooperia is ranked 16,791st in the world and 17th in The United Federations for Most Cultured, scoring 97 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
