The Republic of Valkea is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President Afanasi Koski with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 15.934 billion Valkeans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The large, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Healthcare, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Våren Livet. The average income tax rate is 81.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Valkean economy, worth a remarkable 1,997 trillion Kronor a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 125,356 Kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
A flying elephant and President Afanasi Koski share the same nickname, adverts depict men giving birth while cursing the women who got them into trouble, internet moderator is one of the most popular jobs among the nation's more socially awkward citizens, and ghost regiments exist only on paper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valkea's national animal is the Valkean Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Valkea is ranked 13,933rd in the world and 4th in Astyria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 94.98 law-abiding acts per hour.
