The Republic of Port Ember is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Edward Flint with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 15.177 billion Port Emberians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port Ember Megalopolis. The average income tax rate is 51.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Port Emberian economy, worth a remarkable 7,733 trillion Aurums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 509,536 Aurums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles, major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Port Ember Megalopolis to enjoy their national art, and heavily subsidised Port Emberian baskets litter the streets of Northern Ocean. Crime is totally unknown. Port Ember's national animal is the Komodo Dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Waukeenism.

Port Ember is ranked 93,847th in the world and 1st in Northern Ocean for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 51.42 Effective Tax Rate.
