The ⓵⓶⓷⓸⓹ of Count V is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Pretty Big Mouth with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, fear of technology, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate population of 7.532 billion Count Vians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Count V Mega City. The average income tax rate is 68.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Count Vian economy, worth 325 trillion Quid 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 led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Trout Farming. Average income is 43,169 Quid, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government-sponsored autobiography 'A Pretty Big Mouth For All Seasons' has only been bought by the most loyal of Pretty Big Mouth's supporters, the mood of raunchy movies is often ruined by the sound of babies crying, it is not politically correct to suspect that a serially convicted burglar might steal again, and the people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Count V's national animal is the pointing bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Double Decker Bus.

Count V is ranked 14,550th in the world and 2nd in Pussy for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring 3 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
