The Freeloading Freebooter of Valkyrie Reborn is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Cpt Valentine Morrison with an iron fist, and remarkable for its smutty television, feral children, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 17.447 billion Privateers are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Industry and Administration are also considered important, while Law & Order and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Command Bridge. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Crew economy, worth a remarkable 3,839 trillion Shares a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 220,091 Shares, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,015,965 per year while the poor average 2,568, a ratio of 784 to 1.
The "fire department" is often called to remove offensive religious texts, the nation's entire cultural heritage is being auctioned off to the rich, stockbrokers dream of getting rich by writing textbooks, and court cases mostly involve lawyers shouting questions at witnesses giving silent shrugs. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Valkyrie Reborn's national animal is the Space-Monkey, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Cult of Cthulhu.
Valkyrie Reborn is ranked 289,237th in the world and 70th in The Bar on the corner of every region for Highest Food Quality, scoring 3.5 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
