The Peoples Democratic Republic of Valerria is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Secretary General with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 16.775 billion Valerrians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tobinas Roric-Stad. The average income tax rate is 74.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Valerrian economy, worth a remarkable 1,834 trillion Valerrian Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 109,361 Valerrian Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The navy is hoping to hear the enemy shout "you sank my battleship!", citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee, enemy agents are generally eliminated with extreme prejudice, and maps of the enemy's positions are often covered in blood. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valerria's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Valerria is ranked 137,993rd in the world and 266th in Europeia for Most Stationary, with 221.07678906632 days.
