Verona's interconnected water system is one of the largest water systems in the world, managing more water per year than some entire countries. Much of Verona's water supply is centered around its eight rivers, which snake across the commonwealth. Three of which—the Elisabeth, San Miguel, and Trinity rivers—carry the bulk of the state's demand.
Verona's water system is among the most expansive in the world, managing a volume of water that surpasses that of some entire countries. The state's water supply is primarily sourced from its network of eight major rivers, which traverse its expanse. Of these eight, the Elisabeth, San Miguel, and Trinity rivers provide the majority of the water supply for the state's 76 million inhabitants. Despite the significant output of Verona's river system, the state's water supply has historically been unable to keep up with the demand, which has resulted in the need to pump water from neighboring states, though in recent years, the need to pump water from out of state has decreased dramatically. Notably, Alahuela relies on Verona for all of its water supply and uses one of the country's largest pumping systems to transport it.


Despite the intense output of Verona's river system, the demand of its 76 million residents exceeds its pumping capacity and strains the state's supply. Thusly, Verona also pumps large quantities of water from all of it's neighboring states. Ironically, Alahuela, Cartadania's capital city, purchases all of its water from Verona, which it pumps in using one of the country's largest pumping systems.
In response to the increasing demand for water, Verona implemented a series of conservation efforts that remained a significant component of the state's political agenda for over forty years after its population crossed the 40 million mark in 1937. While the water supply has improved, the state's government continued to promote conservation efforts to prevent another water crisis from occurring until the 1990s, when the state changed its regulations on farming.


Water conservation was a major component of Verona's politics for forty years after Verona crossed the 40 million residents mark, and although it has been less of an issue today due to the abundance of water now within the state, conservation efforts are still around to try and prevent another water crisis.
Interestingly, while the Palm Coast is home to nearly half of Verona's residents, the bulk of the state's water is consumed by the central and southern agricultural regions. These regions provide not only for Verona's population but also for the nation as a whole.
 
Despite Sierra County containing a fifth of Verona residents, the majority of the state's water is actually consumed by the southern and central agriculture zones, which feed not only Verona residents, but the entire nation.
