The People's Holy Hierocracy of New Embliria is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Embliri Trex with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program. Its compassionate population of 13.357 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 government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although the Environment and Social Welfare are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Embliria. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The New Embliria Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise, euthanasia is legal, the government seizes private property for the 'good of the people', and organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Embliria's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Flay.

New Embliria is ranked 71st in Absolution and 79,206th in the world for Most Conservative, scoring 45 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
