The High Order Technocracy of Valiacorkit is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Bellona with an even hand, and notable for its closed borders, rampant corporate plagiarism, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 3.451 billion Fleshy blood sacks are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blood Factory. The average income tax rate is 82.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Fleshy blood sack economy, worth 265 trillion Blood bags a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 76,931 Blood bags, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Student athletes gaze forlornly at abandoned Humanball fields, trespassers entering Bellona's office are immediately vaporized, a government program is underway to revitalize Valiacorkit's beaches, and millions of Fleshy blood sacks are excellent swimmers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valiacorkit's national animal is the Human, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Bloodlust.

Valiacorkit is ranked 23,646^th in the world and 918^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 254.51 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
