The Confederacy of Vectus is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working population of 615 million Vectusians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vectacia. The average income tax rate is 59.7%.

The very strong Vectusian economy, worth 49.9 trillion Creds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 81,085 Creds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, people are offered free trials to go to trial, the government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, and the inside lane of every highway is for parked vehicles only. Crime is totally unknown. Vectus's national animal is the Hyena.

Vectus is ranked 49,607^th in the world and 348^th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,985.51 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
