The Grand Empire of Remdia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Francis Elias Pierce with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.649 billion Remdians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Social Policy is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sophia. The average income tax rate is 67.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Remdian economy, worth a remarkable 1,369 trillion Remedian National Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 128,624 Remedian National Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Fat-shaming is now public policy, children have nightmares about the eerie red glow and constant whirring of newly-installed machines, the nation has a strict 'no marauding undead' law (Remdia has found 1 easter egg), and goldfish bowls are three metres in diameter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Remdia's national animal is the Horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

Remdia is ranked 284,584th in the world and 10,891st in Balder for Highest Food Quality, scoring 5.07 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
