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

The United Socialist States of Valan Prala is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, state-planned economy, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic population of 371 million Valan Pralans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valangrad. The average income tax rate is 77.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Valan Pralan economy, worth 42.5 trillion Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 114,655 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ghost regiments exist only on paper, sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed, the Fashion Channel can only be viewed on widescreen TVs, and diplomats miss flights while wandering Valangrad Airport's endless art maze. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valan Prala's national animal is the Raven, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Valan Prala is ranked 17,635^th in the world and 194^th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Cultured, scoring 92 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
