The Federation of The New Valyrian Freehold is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Freeholder Rhaella Vesperonis with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 9.359 billion Valyrians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Old Valyria. The average income tax rate is 9.8%.
The strong New Valyrian economy, worth 634 trillion Gold Dragons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 67,795 Gold Dragons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.
The nation is experiencing a severe shortage of sporting events, all statues and paintings of dogs are being destroyed to avoid offending cat-lovers, concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas", and Valyrians submit requests for a date in writing with an enclosed RSVP card. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The New Valyrian Freehold's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Lord of Light.
The New Valyrian Freehold is ranked 52,311th in the world and 319th in Artificial Solar System for Most Beautiful Environments, with 675.79 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
