The Empire of Vanevils is a large, cultured nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 185 million Vanevilsians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The relatively small, socially-minded government prioritizes Administration, with Welfare, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 27.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Vanevilsian economy, worth 15.5 trillion vanes shards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 83,758 vanes shards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tourism facilities are being turned into elfin habitats, truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail, the importance of winning Olympic gold medals is indoctrinated from an early age, and light entertainment shows are light on actual entertainment. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Vanevils's national animal is the elfin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vanevils is ranked 163,132^nd in the world and 13^th in HVMUN for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 27.86 Effective Tax Rate.
