The Republic of Valtierras is a mid-sized, socially progressive nation, renowned for its state-planned economy. The democratic, devout population of 92 million Valtierrasians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Spirituality, although Healthcare, Education, and Administration are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 28.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Valtierrasian economy, worth 3.37 trillion Valtierrese Pesos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 36,622 Valtierrese Pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, soldiers with colourful mohawks make themselves perfect targets for snipers, representatives soak in mineral pools at the new capitol building day spa, and EULAs remind customers that "Private Mode" is a browser setting rather than a promise. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valtierras's national animal is the Golden Sparrow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Valtierras is ranked 134,973^rd in the world and 521^st in Concord for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 2,270.61 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
