The Kingdom of Valongo is a huge, socially progressive nation, ruled by William II with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, digital currency, and spontaneously combusting cars. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 840 million valongoans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Monte D'Ouro. The average income tax rate is 46.9%.

The frighteningly efficient valongoan economy, worth 103 trillion coroas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 123,074 coroas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Religious education is a new government priority, the nation is in perpetual campaign mode, the blood, sweat, and tears of poor valongoans make research institutes rich, and prisons in Valongo are the summer homes of murderers. Crime is totally unknown. Valongo's national animal is the maned wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Valongo is ranked 89,464^th in the world and 235^th in Carcassonne for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,072.31 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
