The Empire of Primo Order is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Perseus Iulo with an iron fist, and renowned for its national health service, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 4.856 billion Supreme Emperors 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, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Order. The average income tax rate is 92.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Supremo economy, worth 878 trillion Credits a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 180,989 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The education system is being cleansed of all corporate influence, evenings at university debating societies often end with everyone acknowledging both sides may well be right, the nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, and prodigal children celebrate as charitable bequests plummet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Primo Order's national animal is the Marmot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Primo Order is ranked 240,026^th in the world and 323^rd in Thaecia for Least Corrupt Governments, with 71.14 percentage of bribes refused.
