The Pancake Loving Nation of Alice Valeheart is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Alice Valeheart with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 6.784 billion Alice Valeheartians 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 large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cyrup. The average income tax rate is 60.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Alice Valeheartian economy, worth 404 trillion golds 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 Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Average income is 59,644 golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Museum of Blackacrean War Crimes is located on "Blackacre Did Nothing Wrong Avenue", cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes, economic planning is exalted as a human art form, and schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alice Valeheart's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Violetism.

Alice Valeheart is ranked 283,354^th in the world and 1^st in Pancakes for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring -6.8 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
