The White Visitation of Varanius is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Jeremy Wickwire with an iron fist, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 15.295 billion Entities 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, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Panopticon. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Entitian economy, worth a remarkable 5,064 trillion Jarlic Jewels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 331,150 Jarlic Jewels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Decreased demand for toilets is saving the prison service a lot of money, riot police are stationed around paintings of violent protestors, banning party poppers has been a real party pooper, and politicians sweat as journalists scour internet archives for any mention of them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Varanius's national animal is the Thing, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Church of God the Utterly Indifferent.

Varanius is ranked 331,285th in the world and 2,665th in the West Pacific for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -35.33 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
