The Technocratic Republic of VeryNotAmerica is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Gassandrid with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, vat-grown people, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 9.327 billion Amricans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dareci. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.0%.

The frighteningly efficient VeryNotAmerican economy, worth a remarkable 1,750 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 187,662 Credits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,697,595 per year while the poor average 2,475, a ratio of 685 to 1.

Knock-knock jokes regularly get removed from websites for being too edgy, criminals lock themselves in their mums' basements to avoid prison, becoming a missionary is a sure-fire route to martyrdom, and condemned prisoners spend hours a day sitting in lotus position looking perplexed. Crime is well under control. VeryNotAmerica's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

VeryNotAmerica is ranked 26,958^th in the world and 29^th in Wysteria for Most Cultured, scoring 83 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
