The Empire of Los Vasion is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its national health service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 2.193 billion Vasionists have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Michilien. The average income tax rate is 45.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vasionian economy, worth 204 trillion Vasionist Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 93,228 Vasionist Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Prospective secessionists nervously declare how worthless and unimportant they are, corrupt industrial practices are spreading like a plague, one-stop superstores divide and conquer family businesses, and angst-filled teenagers are rushing off to buy government bonds for some odd reason. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Los Vasion's national animal is the Vasionist Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Los Vasion is ranked 8,292^nd in the world and 396^th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 56.53 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
