The Holy Empire of Vimmystia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Prime minister Desantos Legard with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, avowedly heterosexual populace, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.566 billion Vimmystians 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, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barrest. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 38.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Vimmystian economy, worth 497 trillion Kredits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 139,423 Kredits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 914,452 per year while the poor average 8,323, a ratio of 109 to 1.

You can be fired for dyeing grey hairs, burning members of the Order of Violet is the nation's favorite pastime, the practice of capital punishment proves divisive, and seafood restaurants assure customers 'If it lives in the sea, it's on our menu'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Vimmystia's national animal is the Vimmystian Markhor, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Vreesm.

Vimmystia is ranked 118,514th in the world and 63rd in Declansburg for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 2,373.27 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
