The Federal Democratic Republic of Vesha is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Gordon Freeman with an even hand, and renowned for its burgeoning Horse population. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.336 billion Veshans 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Æristrøv. The average income tax rate is 11.0%.

The Veshan economy, worth 139 trillion Jàvílns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 59,773 Jàvílns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles, new safety regulations require all cars manufactured in Vesha to be bombproof, third party candidates are now gaining some representation in Parliament, and candidates make campaign speeches at the funerals of former rivals. Crime is totally unknown. Vesha's national animal is the Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Protestant Christianity.

Vesha is ranked 132,003^rd in the world and 38^th in Equestria for Highest Average Incomes, with 59,773.69 Standard Monetary Units.
