The Federal Republic of Vero Fra is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The quiet, industrious population of 265 million Vero Frans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 55.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Vero Fran economy, worth 13.4 trillion Franian thalers a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 50,433 Franian thalers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Plain-clothes police officers follow Dàguó tourists everywhere they go, college-level writing classes are taught by undergraduate editors of the school newspaper, stealing from a clothesline is a serious offence, and 50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vero Fra's national animal is the snake, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vero Fra is ranked 146,251^st in the world and 384^th in Carcassonne for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 508.86 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
