The Colony of Venderbight is a very large, orderly nation, notable for its state-planned economy, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 411 million Venderbightians 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 is primarily concerned with Defense, although Administration, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Venderbightian economy, worth 10.6 trillion Rostygolds 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, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. 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 25,772 Rostygolds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Domestic cruise ships fly the Venderbightian flag out of fear of being blown up, toddlers are wielding machine guns in the name of national defense, journalists giggle uncontrollably while reporting the nation's drug bonfires, and the Party has more splits than a yo-yo dieter's trousers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Venderbight's national animal is the Frost-Moth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Venderbight is ranked 315,085th in the world and 43rd in Fallen Nations for Highest Average Incomes, with 25,772.46 Standard Monetary Units.
