The Republic of Vasillios is a very large, socially progressive nation, notable for its national health service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 313 million Vasillians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Romulopolis. The average income tax rate is 63.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Vasilliosian economy, worth 32.7 trillion Vasils a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,352 Vasils, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Troublemakers boast about how many times they have to visit their therapist, edutainment video games are taking Vasillios's students to the next level, ample hospital parking is half-filled by the luxury cars of hospital managers, and relations with Dàguó have warmed from frosty to chilly. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vasillios's national animal is the Fenris Wolf.

Vasillios is ranked 272,365^th in the world and 187^th in Eladria for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -4.91 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
