The Empire of The Imperial Fatherland is a massive, genial nation, ruled by The Emperor with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, national health service, and frequent executions. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.037 billion Imperials are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kaisersberg. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 24.4%.

The powerhouse Imperial economy, worth 286 trillion reichsmünzes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 94,389 reichsmünzes, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.

Investigative reports into the government's latest violation of civilian rights are stored in the fiction aisle, newspapers may not print any negative stories about the government, Imperial companies generally just fire employees in lieu of giving them vacation, and contemporary art museums showcase the latest in centuries-old art. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Imperial Fatherland's national animal is the kaiseradler, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

The Imperial Fatherland is ranked 116,528^th in the world and 95^th in Changuu for Safest, scoring 75.12 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
