The Workers' Socialist States of Vorounovia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jussi Souponen with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and frequent executions. The compassionate population of 12.625 billion Vorounovians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wevanaan. The average income tax rate is 88.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Vorounovian economy, worth a remarkable 1,077 trillion Je'Caelhes 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 mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Retail. Average income is 85,336 Je'Caelhes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hospitals fear government fines more than terrorist ransoms, concussed Vorounovian Cobraball players cannot remember their lineup position, the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Wevanaan Times is sold out, and it is illegal for a parent to tell a child to stop eating their boogers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vorounovia's national animal is the Vorounovian Cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is State Atheism.

Vorounovia is ranked 73,700^th in the world and 1^st in The Tulip Sphere for Highest Average Incomes, with 85,336.2 Standard Monetary Units.
