The Galactic Republic of House Valorum is a massive, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning womp rat population. The hard-working population of 4.074 billion House Valorumians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 16.3%.

The House Valorumian economy, worth 189 trillion credits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Soda Sales. Average income is 46,460 credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. House Valorum's national animal is the womp rat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

House Valorum is ranked 151,543^rd in the world and 1^st in Republic Galactica for Nicest Citizens, with 12 average smiles per day.
