The Armed Republic of Valkiir is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by John Rhictor-Valkiiri with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cheerful population of 5.89 billion Valkiirii have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valkiir City. The average income tax rate is 97.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Valkiirii economy, worth a remarkable 1,730 trillion Standards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 293,751 Standards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Public parks are littered with cigarette butts, glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, older ladies are inundated with offers to help them cross the road, and the tax agency is feared more than serial killers and terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valkiir's national animal is the Swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Valkiir is ranked 2,053^rd in the world and 3^rd in United Forum of Nations for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 25,055.62 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
