The Progressive Republic of VuVuVaz is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Cody Camille Veronica Vu Broderick with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 3.108 billion VuVuVazians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eegatustees. The average income tax rate is 79.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The VuVuVazian economy, worth 200 trillion Wongas 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 mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Retail. Average income is 64,507 Wongas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Digital novelty coins make for surprising vanguards of the revolution, the subway is dead quiet in early afternoons, rugby players that knock each other over always stop to make sure the other fellow is okay, and the new VuVuVazian-made OS is buggier and more inconvenient than a horse-drawn carriage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. VuVuVaz's national animal is the Qwinty, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

VuVuVaz is ranked 21,805^th in the world and 388^th in 10000 Islands for Smartest Citizens, with 58.78 quips per hour.
