The Cannibalicracy of Vespertilia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Belpheghorhoth Gacek with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 41.32 billion Vespertilians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The minute, liberal, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is dominated by the Department of Education, although Defense is also considered important, while Law & Order and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ravendark. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Vespertilian economy, worth an astonishing 17,261 trillion Gaceks a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 417,755 Gaceks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Torture is illegal, referenda are held for every conceivable government action, there's no such thing as bad publicity, and Belpheghorhoth Gacek reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Vespertilia's national animal is the bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Vespertilia is ranked 341st in the world and 1st in Poland for Most Stationary, with 5,514.66313728 days.
