The Dominion of Valala is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 7.073 billion Valalians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 9.1%.
The strong Valalian economy, worth 409 trillion Valalian Rand a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 57,896 Valalian Rand, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.
Animal Liberationists are regularly arrested, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, East Lebatuckese luxury goods are plundered by the working class of Valala, and soldiers must key in their passwords every time they want to reload their weapons. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Valala's national animal is the elephant, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Valala is ranked 278,309th in the world and 84th in The TWR and NE Puppet Depot for Largest Governments, scoring 8.72 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
