The 3rd Federal Republic of Vershkosik is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Taek Hwang Min with an even hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, aversion to nipples, and national health service. The compassionate population of 7.21 billion Vershkosikians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yassiko. The average income tax rate is 97.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Vershkosikian economy, worth a remarkable 1,596 trillion Yons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 221,442 Yons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The children of Vershkosik are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence, invasive species are hunted by the gendarmerie, every week is blindness awareness week, and social media sites prompt users to send birthday greetings to unresponsive nonagenarians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vershkosik's national animal is the Vershkosikian wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Vershkosik is ranked 6,192^nd in the world and 5^th in Kyodeia for Safest, scoring 127.79 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
