The Empire of Valenheart is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The quiet, industrious population of 20.411 billion Valenheartians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 12.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Valenheartian economy, worth 855 trillion Dikoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,896 Dikoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools, prison visits increase substantially during election years, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, and mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valenheart's national animal is the Panda, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Valenheart is ranked 195,402^nd in the world and 1^st in Valenheart for Lowest Crime Rates, with 57.1 law-abiding acts per hour.
