The Voice of the Violet of Vaelet is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, pith helmet sales, and ubiquitous missile silos. The cynical, devout population of 4.281 billion Vaeletians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 40.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Vaeletian economy, worth 267 trillion rupees a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 62,393 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', people are turning themselves into worm food, livestock mutilations are on the rise, and children asking questions about science are referred to relevant sections in religious texts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vaelet's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Vaelet is ranked 66,596^th in the world and 5^th in Coclestab for Highest Poor Incomes, with 44,561.53 Standard Monetary Units.
