The Holy and Exalted Empire of Valentian Elysium is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its anti-smoking policies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 679 million Valento-Elysians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brudondam. The average income tax rate is 59.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Valentian-Elysian economy, worth 67.4 trillion b0Is a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is 99,299 b0Is, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

People seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak, local mafias have a tough time disposing of dead snitches without catching the attention of recycling authorities, and confessions don't count if suffixed with "izzle". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valentian Elysium's national animal is the Robin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Valentian Elysium is ranked 85,795^th in the world and 548^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Agricultural Sector, scoring 837.5 on the Mu-Bah-Daggs Productivity Index.
