The Endless Empire of Ermarian is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Empress Prazac XII with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 41.615 billion Ermarianese are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dawn. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Ermarianese economy, worth a remarkable 6,421 trillion imperials a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 154,297 imperials, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

'Totally Not Partisan News' is a line item on the government budget, criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, the regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb, and many friends and relatives of Empress Prazac XII have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations. Crime is totally unknown. Ermarian's national animal is the pony, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is abolished.

Ermarian is ranked 1,131^st in the world and 19^th in The North Pacific for Largest Populations, with 41.6 billion capita.
