The Sovereign Imperium of Machina Haruspex is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Empress Kira'Karn with an iron fist, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, free-roaming dinosaurs, and soft-spoken computers. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 47.381 billion Harus are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chel de Yorn. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Machina Haruspexian economy, worth an astonishing 24,268 trillion Haru Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is a breathtaking 512,205 Haru Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Roadside walls are being built and mother nature is paying for it, judicial torture is outsourced overseas, political hopefuls must announce their intentions decades in advance to accommodate extensive background checks, and pretending to be prejudiced is a good way to get out of jury duty. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Machina Haruspex's national animal is the Tbe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Tyng Sudran.

Machina Haruspex is ranked 260th in the world and 4th in Gholgoth for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 17,224.83 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
