The Empire of Folkvalley is a large, socially progressive nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 163 million Folkvalleyians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The minute, liberal, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 5.6%.

The strong Folkvalleyian economy, worth 11.1 trillion bitcoins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is 68,055 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Folkvalley's national animal is the unicorn, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Folkvalley is ranked 235,143^rd in the world and 159^th in Benigtopia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -5 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
