The Principality of Vultaos is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Prince Syirō sa-soō Medusoeidôn with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 10.489 billion Vultains love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hydо̄ryо̄. The average income tax rate is 68.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Vultaosian economy, worth 727 trillion Thálas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 69,357 Thálas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Hydо̄ryо̄ to enjoy their national art, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, and the government has solemnly sworn not to look up other nations' internet browsing history if the favor is returned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vultaos's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Tysūhoni.

Vultaos is ranked 224,881^st in the world and 3^rd in Argo Navis for Fattest Citizens, with 8.56 Obesity Rate.
