The Marquisate of Vivanco is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Petrio Raimundo the III with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, vat-grown people, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.156 billion Vivanquians 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 enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nueva Petria. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Vivanquian economy, worth 745 trillion Repuroes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 144,537 Repuroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has declared its commitment to multilateralism, nude art is becoming wildly popular, most ambassadors from Vivanco retire only a few years after being appointed, and the Party has more splits than a yo-yo dieter's trousers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vivanco's national animal is the boar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cult of the Lady.

Vivanco is ranked 4,011^th in the world and 146^th in The North Pacific for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 2,977.19 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
