The Holy Empire of Edmulus is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Edmund with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, avowedly heterosexual populace, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20.963 billion Edmulusians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edmulustown. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Edmulusian economy, worth a remarkable 5,635 trillion francs 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Retail, Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. 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 amazing 268,809 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Legislators work 24/7 due to an influx of single-issue bills, insurance companies charge extortionate premiums to cover homes near waterways, piracy is the nation's most popular pastime, and Edmund spends most weeknights picking up little nuisances from friends' houses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Edmulus's national animal is the wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Edmusian.

Edmulus is ranked 420th in the world and 1st in The Empire of Tamriel for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 28,301.49 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
