The Red High Athelingric of Valoptia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Leofric Frost with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, frequent executions, and national health service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.299 billion Valoptians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Osearwynn. The income tax rate is 100.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Valoptian economy, worth a remarkable 2,105 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 489,770 pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,715,478 per year while the poor average 101,527, a ratio of 16.9 to 1.
Government police forces protect public schools from the threat of protest, nude art is becoming wildly popular, conscientious objectors are hanged as traitors, and the controversial show 'Who Wants to be an Immigrant?' has become wildly popular. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valoptia's national animal is the red panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Gnosticism.
Valoptia is ranked 765th in the world and 3rd in The Communist Bloc for Most Corrupt Governments, with 534.95 kickbacks per hour.
