The Imperial Remnant of Winter Bastion is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Primarch Cambrius Winterborn with an iron fist, and remarkable for its national health service, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, cynical population of 22.682 billion Imperials are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Azuria. The average income tax rate is 51.2%.

The strong Imperial economy, worth a remarkable 1,714 trillion credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 75,609 credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

The navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust, the study of medicine is popular throughout Winter Bastion, weird or unusual crimes merit cruel and unusual punishments, and teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Winter Bastion's national animal is the nexu and its national religion is Sith.

Winter Bastion is ranked 151,996^th in the world and 2^nd in AEGIS for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,485.54 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
