The Nordic Empire of Aureumterra III is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Frederik IV with an iron fist, and notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.787 billion Aureumterrese 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while Social Policy receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Potens. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Aureumterrese economy, worth 561 trillion Kronor a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,272 Kronor, with the richest citizens earning 7.8 times as much as the poorest.

Hymns sung by popular choirs top the billboard charts, Aureumterrese believe a soft answer turneth away wrath but punitive punishment is much more fun, couch potatoes are considered to be model citizens, and being nicknamed "Orange Face" has done Emperor Frederik IV's credibility no favours. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aureumterra III's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Lutheran Christianity.

Aureumterra III is ranked 72,773^rd in the world and 10^th in The Strategic and Economic Alliance for Most Stationary, with 366.39527245132 days.
