The Bioregional Queendom of Vernya is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, ban on automobiles, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 1.212 billion Vernyans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Verda. The average income tax rate is 74.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Vernyan economy, worth 85.2 trillion Varis a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 70,292 Varis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Juvenile delinquents are fitter than ever, many in Vernya are born in the purple, prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, and pareidolic SETI scientists swear there's a message from aliens hidden within pi. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vernya's national animal is the Sylveran Meadow Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vernya is ranked 3,078^th in the world and 1^st in The United Bioregions of Carconia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 13,739.89 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
