The Eternal Empire of Ardretia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Eren Yeager with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 1.287 billion Ardretians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eldia. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Ardretian economy, worth 180 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 140,405 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 8.1 times as much as the poorest.

Government popup ads are springing up like weeds, formerly internationally exported goods are now given away for free, sections of the police receive paramilitary training, and tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ardretia's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Yeagerism.

Ardretia is ranked 185,127^th in the world and 7,540^th in The North Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -6.03 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
