The Federal Republic of Valemora is a massive, safe nation, ruled by the Chief Emric Lucien Caelmont with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.409 billion Valemorans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurivienne. The average income tax rate is 80.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Valemoran economy, worth 168 trillion ℳ minats a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 119,351 ℳ minats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is hoping that medical aid will speak louder than human rights abuses, third world countries are rich in "I Love Aurivienne" t-shirts, foreign powers often deal with problems that Valemora can't handle, and for 25 ℳ minats tourists can gawk at the site of national tragedy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valemora's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Agnostic Pluralism.

Valemora is ranked 46,274^th in the world and 663^rd in the South Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 119,351.24 Standard Monetary Units.
