The Federal Republic of Varisland is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Yasmijn Kruiper with a fair hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 9.111 billion Varislandians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Varastad. The average income tax rate is 91.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Varislandic economy, worth a remarkable 2,285 trillion Varislandic Marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 250,855 Varislandic Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign workers are flooding in as Varislandic Marks flood out, incarcerated crime lords manage their empires from massage tables, directors of low-budget sci-fi films are flocking to use Varastad as a backdrop, and the restriction that you must be over 1.1 metres tall to ride a carnotaurus has recently been waived. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Varisland's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Varisland is ranked 2,772^nd in the world and 140^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 141.33 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
