The People's Republic of Varayusha is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by the Underlord with an even hand, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, parental licensing program, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 36.4 billion Varayushans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Healthcare, and Environment also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Underwarren Prime. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Varayushan economy, worth an astonishing 26,887 trillion toggle-bolts 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, 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 a breathtaking 738,656 toggle-bolts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Loyalty to the State now admits men and women into its clergy, SOS from foreign ships mean "shoot on sight", it is said that the captain goes down with the ship but ecological protection goes up, and graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Varayusha's national animal is the icefang, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is loyalty to the State.

Varayusha is ranked 2,991^st in the world and 25^th in the South Pacific for Largest Populations, with 36.4 billion capita.
