The Wine Dark Sea of Val-1 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 23.038 billion Val-1ians 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 medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, with Defense, Administration, and Education also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 54.2%.

The powerhouse Val-1ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,026 trillion $$s a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 87,975 $$s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Running away is an essential part of the elite forces' hand-to-hand training, advertisers scramble to sponsor the broadcast of Leader's most personal functions, the beauty of coastal towns is marred only slightly by all the closed-down storefronts, and military barracks resemble five-star hotels. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Val-1's national animal is the Dolly Varden, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Val-1 is ranked 2,702nd in the world and 1st in Valencia for Most Stationary, with 3,859.70586312 days.
