The Empire of Vallangast is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, daily referendums, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 4.614 billion Vallangastians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vekta. The average income tax rate is 96.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Vallangastian economy, worth 930 trillion Vektan Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 201,571 Vektan Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.2 times as much as the poorest.

Religious education is a new government priority, coffee cups have grown in size to accommodate the huge ingredients list, cyber-crime and tin-foil hat sales are both increasing at record rates, and they say that Leader's personal computer is full of naked pictures of the Emperor of Maxtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vallangast's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Vallangast is ranked 287,513^th in the world and 5,129^th in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -14.93 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
