The Constitutional Monarchy of Adalwulf is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by King Alexander with an even hand, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, lack of airports, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed population of 1.162 billion Adalwulfians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Adal. The average income tax rate is 78.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Adalwulfian economy, worth 171 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 147,759 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

At least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to King Alexander's wardrobe, the government is spending millions on alternative clean-burning fuels, Occam's razor has sliced to pieces any childhood belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, and it's surprisingly hard to find pictures of the bad haircuts from King Alexander's childhood. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Adalwulf's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is None.

Adalwulf is ranked 25,374^th in the world and 74^th in Conch Kingdom for Most Patriotic, with 30.58 flags saluted per person per day.
