The Dominion of Great Baltic Empire is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and lack of airports. The hard-nosed population of 6.03 billion Baltics 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 69.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Great Baltic Empirean economy, worth 594 trillion Euros a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 98,602 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Arbitrary election rules are considered sacrosanct, Jennifer Government is a bestseller, citizens who plan overseas vacations are barred from running for political office, and construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Great Baltic Empire's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Great Baltic Empire is ranked 136,754^th in the world and 4^th in Great Commonwealth of the Midgard for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring -6.63 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
