The Kingdom of Valencia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by King Jaume I with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, zero percent divorce rate, and suspicion of poets. The quiet, industrious population of 28.17 billion Valencians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valencia City. The average income tax rate is 39.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The enormous but inefficient Valencian economy, worth a remarkable 1,008 trillion pessetas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Retail, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,800 pessetas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Elite teams of assassins have been sent into Brasilistan, 'Coloniser-in-Chief' has become King Jaume I's new moniker, Brasilistanis face layers of paperwork in a different language just to visit a doctor, and citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valencia's national animal is the bull, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Valencia is ranked 116,922nd in the world and 24th in Terranova for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 2,372.85 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
