The 4chan Monarch of Valentine Astrid is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Moot with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.225 billion Valentine Astridians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Television and Film. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Valentine Astridian economy, worth 334 trillion chocolates a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 150,417 chocolates, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, goldfish bowls are three metres in diameter, and schoolchildren learn an R-rated version of "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Valentine Astrid's national animal is the mouse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Violetism.
Valentine Astrid is ranked 19,090th in the world and 2nd in 4chan for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 8,236.36 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
