Overview

The Race Car Drivers of Vanek Drury Brieres is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 627 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although Social Welfare and Law & Order are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 89%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Refugees from other nations are flocking to Vanek Drury Brieres's border, genetic researchers have been expelled, new urban roads are threatening city parks, and Rupert Bear is considered to be the most risqué TV programme in Vanek Drury Brieres. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vanek Drury Brieres's national animal is the buffalo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Sabre.

NS History

The Race Car Drivers of Vanek Drury Brieres was supposedly created by a revolution against a former country lead by Thomas Vanek Sr., Ryan Getzlaf Sr., Chris Drury Sr., and Daniel Briere Sr. The revolution was successful, and the people loved the four. So they became the first members of the Princial Board of the VDB. They died around ten years ago, and their sons have taken their spots. The grandsons of the original four are around 18 years of age.
