The Master of the Aetherlands of The United Vex Imperium is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Augustus Mycen Rayne with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, pith helmet sales, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 16.112 billion Imperials have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vexium. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Imperial economy, worth a remarkable 7,253 trillion Script and Fleurs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 450,171 Script and Fleurs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreigners write "made in The United Vex Imperium" on shoddy merchandise in hope of receiving a buy-out, the once prosperous capital is in utter decline, there's a literal nanny state for the legions of children taken by social services, and weather forecasts are accurate but nobody has the bandwidth to view them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The United Vex Imperium's national animal is the regal mastiff, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Imperial Aldericism.

The United Vex Imperium is ranked 8,485^th in the world and 6^th in The Amaranthine Isles for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 6,318.55 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
