“For Sun and Crown”

The Constitutional Empire of Ermarian is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Dorian Sol II with an even hand, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 10.716 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Education, although the Environment and Social Welfare are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Solaria. The average income tax rate is 100%. A healthy private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Euthanasia is legal, surveillance cameras are banned, citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling", and people are now classified as male, female, or genderqueer. Crime is totally unknown. Ermarian's national animal is the salamander, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the drachmae.

Ermarian is ranked 1282nd in the region and 53,355th in the world for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector.
