History

Not long ago, by the reckoning of those who tell tales of ancient days, a band of refugees fled across the Archimal Archipelago, and happened to find, on the largest island and farthest to the east, a hospitable land rich in metal and stone quarries. This was, though they could not know it, the ruins of a far more ancient Civilization. Woodtopia. These people created a home there, among the spirits of the old, a liberal society bound by stringently protected freedoms. The only administrator was the dictator being elected every generation, the Veatch. Once the Veatch Drama Geeks (as they called themselves) had reached a certain level of sophistication, they opened diplomatic relations with the other nations of Moperville.

Economy

Veatch Drama Geeks is mostly made up of agricultural communities, and it exports large quanitites of it's primary livestock, the Literature Major. Said farming communitities are for the most part wielded by corporate monopolizers, heading unethical information technology corporations. Though one would think the firmly anti-big business attitude of the government would dissuade such activity, the reality far removed.

Government and policies

The seemingly ethical and yet undeniably corrupt dictatorial government is presided over by The Veatch, a figure so thoroughly caked in pseudo-religous superstition as to make it's actual designs almost illegible. Aside from this very specific aspect of governance, Civil freedoms are upheld to an almost frightening degree. The people are free to go about away from the prying eyes of the government, and partake of whatever ills they may desire.
