The People's Republic of Valorigrad is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Consul Of Nine with an even hand, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 6.016 billion Valorians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valorigrad. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Valorigradian economy, worth 852 trillion Thoriums a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 141,640 Thoriums, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nuclear physics is the most popular course at university, bad punctuation has come to a full stop, lonely people are supposed to be cheered up by the many parties that they are never invited to, and lovesick people are told 'it's not them, it's you'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valorigrad's national animal is the Jackel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Greater Good.

Valorigrad is ranked 8,571^st in the world and 16^th in The Social Liberal Union for Lowest Crime Rates, with 104.07 law-abiding acts per hour.
