The Raging Fires of Valenare is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Astrid Weisberg with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.977 billion Valenareans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Regling. The average income tax rate is 56.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Valenarean economy, worth 456 trillion head pats a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is 91,703 head pats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new Refuse Hills housing development is under construction, the nation faces constant invasions by foreign boy bands, mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, and teenagers are told they're not thinking about sex enough. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valenare's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Violetism.

Valenare is ranked 249,542^nd in the world and 5^th in Spanish Empire for Most Avoided, scoring 1.01 on the Kardashian Reflex Score.
