The Republic of Vurk is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Director with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program, avant-garde cinema, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate population of 5.366 billion Vurks are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kinigin. The average income tax rate is 99.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Vurkian economy, worth a remarkable 1,402 trillion VCRS a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 261,385 VCRS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Business is adjusting to new gender equality policies in the workplace, the ongoing space elevator construction project has elevated the national debt to all new levels, aristocracy is given the bird and called out as a lark, and the government believes there is no problem that raising taxes won't fix. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vurk's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is forgotten.

Vurk is ranked 5,421st in the world and 60th in Europe for Highest Average Incomes, with 261,385.07 Standard Monetary Units.
