The Federation of Salveen States is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 889 million Salfvns are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kala. The average income tax rate is 58.1%.

The strong Salveen economy, worth 45.4 trillion Valas a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,042 Valas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

The credibility of anti-government demagogues is undermined by government claims that they smell like poo, lawyers turn down litigation cases and corporate work in order to focus on lucrative public defence work, breast milk is being redistributed from each according to their ability to each according to their need, and the Federal Council of Salveen States has been announced as the new Head of State. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Salveen States's national animal is the Red Jay, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Salveen States is ranked 148,497^th in the world and 5^th in Galatolia for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 1,517.33 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
