The Imperial State of The Empire of Alerba is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Malindyis I with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.685 billion Alerbi are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Old Alerb City. The average income tax rate is 93.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Alerbi economy, worth 472 trillion Imperial Lire a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 128,159 Imperial Lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Banned objects are regularly legalized if they've been successfully stolen from the government, East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', all guns must be registered, and traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Empire of Alerba's national animal is the Rainbow Trout, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Traditional Alerb Polytheism.

The Empire of Alerba is ranked 256,271st in the world and 731st in Concord for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -3.9 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
