The Union of Valerion is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Overlord Valerius with an iron fist, and notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, ubiquitous missile silos, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 27.615 billion Valerionites are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valerion. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Valerionic economy, worth an astonishing 11,502 trillion Denariis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 416,517 Denariis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Up to 40% of voters can finally read the issues they're deciding on, citizens are deployed to barren deserts to protect small territorial claims, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and exiles see that the line where the sky meets the sea is just clouds and rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Valerion's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Valerion is ranked 155^th in the world and 4^th in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 268.47 law-abiding acts per hour.
