The Holy Realm of Grand Duchy of Nardin is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Grand Duke Nikolas II with an even hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 24.096 billion Nardiniks have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Krajik. The average income tax rate is 79.4%.

The strong Nardinik economy, worth a remarkable 1,429 trillion Nardinik pounds a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 59,324 Nardinik pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Squeaky high prepubescent voices recite the patriotic poem "Hail to The Leader!" before each meal, the poor are forced into bankruptcy by their energy bills, family bonding sessions are considered immoral and are banned, and videogames like 'Equalia: Knights of Self-Confidence' are proving inexplicably unpopular. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grand Duchy of Nardin's national animal is the Skjic Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Nardinik Orthodoxy.

Grand Duchy of Nardin is ranked 36,255th in the world and 1st in Strategos Prime for Most Cultured, scoring 76 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
