The 🌪️cataclysmic catastrophe❄️ of Vando0sa is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Sergeant Major Sabinka with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cheerful population of 27.225 billion youkai 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 large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Industry, and Environment are also considered important, while Law & Order and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Serico. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient youkai economy, worth an astonishing 26,316 trillion ceks 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. 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 a breathtaking 966,636 ceks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hackers post hourly updates on international summits, octogenarian swimsuit models insist that they've still got it, only those who apply can study applied maths, and people who have never eaten chicken are told it tastes a bit like crocodile. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Vando0sa's national animal is the catfish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cult of Shvonkism.

Vando0sa is ranked 625^th in the world and 4^th in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 23,001.23 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
