The Federal Republic of Valemora is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by the Chief Emric Lucien Caelmont with a fair hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.298 billion Valemorans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurivienne. The average income tax rate is 79.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Valemoran economy, worth 152 trillion ℳ minats a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,853 ℳ minats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Carefully-staged grief is displayed by the Chief Emric Lucien Caelmont after national disasters, pet loving officers arrest citizens who don't give their dogs enough biscuits, the government is ignoring the latest terrorist atrocities in Aurivienne for fear of causing a fuss, and no one gossips with the Chief Emric Lucien Caelmont during diplomatic summits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valemora's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Agnostic Pluralism.

Valemora is ranked 203,931^st in the world and 2,641^st in the South Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -1.61 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
