The Armageddon of the Brain of Magecastle Embassy Building A5 is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Bernd Seidel with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 8.495 billion Icers are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magecastle. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Ice economy, worth a remarkable 1,147 trillion Devonian Aiers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 135,042 Devonian Aiers, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 992,783 per year while the poor average 5,598, a ratio of 177 to 1.

The bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Magecastle, the roads are notorious throughout the region for their peril, foreign spirits are hard to find due to an abundance of "Cletus and Jim Bob's Homemade Ice Moonshine", and sales of superhero insurance have skyrocketed after the government abandoned the police in favor of vigilantes. Crime is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Magecastle Embassy Building A5's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Order of Klyprer.
