The Syndical Cooperative Kingdom of Vithinja is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 2.915 billion Vithinjans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ralkernsville. The average income tax rate is 66.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Vithinjan economy, worth 295 trillion Talers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 101,463 Talers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Kitties are considered a delicacy, the volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, the state-controlled media salutes those about to spy, and government election advice reads like a restaurant menu. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vithinja's national animal is the Kitty, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Vithinja is ranked 258,085th in the world and 9th in IxWiki for Largest Black Market, with 142 billion Standard Monetary Units.
