“Liberalitas, Humanitas, Victoria”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The People's Republic of Eastern Valskovia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Feodor Alexandrov with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, public floggings, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 8.749 billion Eastern Valskovians 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 Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zavutsk. The average income tax rate is 92.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Eastern Valskovian economy, worth 762 trillion tschekovs 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 Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. Average income is 87,156 tschekovs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Helicopter parenting is on the rise, Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year, the government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, and the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eastern Valskovia's national animal is the Trakehner, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Eastern Valskovia is ranked 277,070^th in the world and 5,955^th in The North Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 6,798.2 Standard Monetary Units.
