The Empire of Vendusi is a titanic, socially progressive nation, renowned for its burgeoning falcon population. The hard-nosed population of 24.423 billion Vendusians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 26.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Vendusian economy, worth 583 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Trout Farming, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 23,896 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vendusi's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Vendusi is ranked 170,472^nd in the world and 4^th in fluffy squishfish for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 26.22 Effective Tax Rate.
