The Democratic Republic of Vioxa is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Stephanie Voliander with an iron fist, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, pith helmet sales, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.669 billion Vioxans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Volaria. The average income tax rate is 59.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vioxan economy, worth 661 trillion vios a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Retail, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 141,580 vios, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Former slaves find themselves being herded onto ships once more, Vioxa isn't what it used to be, tourists are kicked out if they express interest in their national sport, and statue-sitting has replaced the stake-out as the dullest form of police duty. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vioxa's national animal is the the vitalitarian land shark, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Vioxan Covenent.

Vioxa is ranked 22,454^th in the world and 121^st in Conch Kingdom for Most Beautiful Environments, with 959.79 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
