The Kingdom of Valerina is a massive, genial nation, notable for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.037 billion Valerinans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 50.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Valerinan economy, worth 141 trillion Valvas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Retail, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,240 Valvas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Aristocracy is given the bird and called out as a lark, space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, speeches have been enlivened since Leader started spitting bars, and 4-year-olds are often found reminiscing about the 'good old days'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valerina's national animal is the The Blue Valerina Toad, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Valerina is ranked 105,695^th in the world and 4,083^rd in Lazarus for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,919.76 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
