The Holy and Exalted Empire of Valentian Elysium is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Holy Emperor Nino II the Good with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 10.213 billion Valento-Elysians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brudondam. The average income tax rate is 78.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Valentian-Elysian economy, worth a remarkable 1,211 trillion b0Is a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 118,669 b0Is, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Sports fans complain that cricket tests now last an unbearable ten days, foreign workers are flooding in as b0Is flood out, CEOs can't hear the term 'Fire Sale' without bursting into tears, and you can't spell society without CIS. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valentian Elysium's national animal is the robin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Valentian Elysium is ranked 31,111th in the world and 289th in 10000 Islands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 81.85 law-abiding acts per hour.
