The Confederacy of The Valunius is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 11.452 billion Valuniusians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The tiny government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.
The very strong Valuniusian economy, worth 808 trillion valunian credits a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Trout Farming. Average income is 70,569 valunian credits, with the richest citizens earning 9.4 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Valunius's national animal is the space whale, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
The Valunius is ranked 226,731st in the world and 124th in Emirates of Futurnia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 56.38 law-abiding acts per hour.
