The Money of Stal Valley is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Ultimate evil money leader XVII with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, infamous sell-swords, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.663 billion Stal Vallains are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The minute, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, with Spirituality, Defense, and Administration also on the agenda, while Environment and Education aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Money. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Stal Valleyian economy, worth 566 trillion Monies a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Soda Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 212,795 Monies, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,242,233 per year while the poor average 17,150, a ratio of 72.4 to 1.

Public nudity is compulsory, you can bet your bottom dollar that gambling will cost you an arm and a leg, crooks and people with too many kids are being kicked out of the country, and red fabric is banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Stal Valley's national animal is the Human, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Stal Valley is ranked 1,536th in the world and 50th in the Rejected Realms for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 210,667.27 Standard Monetary Units.
