The Empire of Ambarlat is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Dear Leader with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, complete lack of prisons, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.594 billion Ambarlatians 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haëleo. The average income tax rate is 36.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Ambarlatian economy, worth 258 trillion ambars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 162,008 ambars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Veterans' meet-ups involve a lot of tail sniffing, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, and citizens try to pass off bottlecaps they found in their backyards as historical artifacts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ambarlat's national animal is the rooster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ambarlat is ranked 187,797^th in the world and 131^st in Declansburg for Largest Populations, with 1.59 billion capita.
