The Moon Princess of Vantwosa is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Kaguya Hime with an iron fist, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, keen interest in outer space, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 19.23 billion Ghostly Ozois are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Spirituality, Industry, and Welfare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Dark Moon. The average income tax rate is 92.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Vantwosan economy, worth a remarkable 2,903 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 a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 impressive 150,979 Ceks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Gambling is outlawed, the Vantwosan Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, the police force is rumoured to be made up of evil shadows with no souls, and construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Vantwosa's national animal is the Zombie Faerie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Imperishable Night.

Vantwosa is ranked 8,679th in the world and 1st in Vandoosa for Most Stationary, with 2,567.93417596552 days.
