The Grand Duchy of Voria is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Aurelia Ardeneau with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, sprawling nuclear power plants, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 6.065 billion Vorians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nimida. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 23.9%.

The powerhouse Vorian economy, worth 536 trillion florins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 88,441 florins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 456,009 per year while the poor average 9,350, a ratio of 48.8 to 1.

It's hunting season on loan sharks, cold medicines curiously become cheaper when government officials sneeze, college-level writing classes are taught by undergraduate editors of the school newspaper, and foreign policy is to avoid standing up to bullies. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Voria's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Marianism.

Voria is ranked 264,130^th in the world and 34^th in Vitorus for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -8.37 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
