The Detective of Veronica Mars is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Kristen Bell with an iron fist, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, cynical population of 4.74 billion marshmallows are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Public Transport. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neptune. The average income tax rate is 34.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The 09er economy, worth 233 trillion Mars bars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,294 Mars bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Requests for government aid can be forwarded to the beach, more than one company makes the board game Monopoly, the Veronica Mars Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise, and business ambassadors offer bong tokes to foreign leaders. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Veronica Mars's national animal is the Backup, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is color noir.

Veronica Mars is ranked 126,594^th in the world and 34^th in Seinfeld for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 612.53 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
