The Moon Princess of Vantwosa is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Kaguya Hime with an iron fist, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, parental licensing program, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 24.639 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 Industry, Spirituality, 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 3,719 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 300,146th in the world and 1st in Vandoosa for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 27.9 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
