The Republic of Nouvelle Valois is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its parental licensing program, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 1.669 billion Nouvelle Valoisians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 86.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Nouvelle Valoisian economy, worth 141 trillion francs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is 84,616 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, the government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap, giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, and the nation is wading into dangerous waters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nouvelle Valois's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nouvelle Valois is ranked 7,754^th in the world and 18^th in Thaecia for Most Secular, with 96.72 Atheism Rate.
