The Lush forests of Veganaea is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, restrictive gun laws, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.872 billion vegans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 74.4%.

The vegan economy, worth 341 trillion ₲reenleaves a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is 38,529 ₲reenleaves, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Blue sky thinkers are reminded that the firmament is actually more of a grey-ish colour, truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail, the military maintains a fierce arsenal of 'Cure Missiles', and every workday begins with group therapy. Crime is well under control. Veganaea's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Veganaea is ranked 14,489^th in the world and 1^st in Vegan for Safest, scoring 116.19 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
