The People's Republic of Eastern Valskovia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Feodor Alexandrov with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 1.928 billion Eastern Valskovians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zavutsk. The average income tax rate is 86.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Eastern Valskovian economy, worth 127 trillion tschekovs 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 led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Average income is 66,232 tschekovs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, getting an autograph has become harder than ever, Feodor Alexandrov goes out to lunch surrounded by large men in dark glasses, and translators have been hired to deal with the varying regional accents during national political debates. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eastern Valskovia's national animal is the Trakehner, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Eastern Valskovia is ranked 23,479^th in the world and 1,219^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,461.79 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
