The Kingdom of Vorikstean is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by King Aster Sandar II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, complete lack of prisons, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 15.513 billion Clitonians 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 prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Welfare and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vanboun. The average income tax rate is 40.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Clitonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,454 trillion Rodins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 93,732 Rodins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

Elementary school children develop thousand-yard stares, grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly, burning members of the Order of Violet is the nation's favorite pastime, and the holiest shrine in Indigoism is on another world. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vorikstean's national animal is the Dublion Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Indigoism.

Vorikstean is ranked 35,758th in the world and 12th in Aceon for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 5,333.28 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
