The Violet Vizier of Valerievna is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Miss Bad Life Choices with an even hand, and remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, compulsory vegetarianism, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 4.88 billion Peebbles are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Spirituality, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while International Aid is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valerievna City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 42.4%.

The all-consuming Peebble economy, worth 790 trillion candy canes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 162,082 candy canes, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 917,368 per year while the poor average 14,030, a ratio of 65.4 to 1.

Road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans, anything is permissible when wearing latex gloves, children deemed 'disorderly' or otherwise unfit for public schools are shipped off to military academies, and visitors to Valerievna are microchipped and must be escorted by a Peebble soldier - even to the bathroom. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Valerievna's national animal is the fish, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Lynxism.

Valerievna is ranked 73,666^th in the world and 3,243^rd in Osiris for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 42.44 Effective Tax Rate.
