The Supreme Empire of The Legion of Mankind is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Federal Council with an iron fist, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, zero percent divorce rate, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 12.555 billion Legionites are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Varela. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Legionite economy, worth a remarkable 3,436 trillion Crowns a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 273,693 Crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, the installation of street lights across remote goat tracks has left citizens bemused, political spontaneity takes a lot of planning, and whole-wheat loaves can only be ordered on the dark web. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Legion of Mankind's national animal is the Black Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Lokalism.

The Legion of Mankind is ranked 9,419th in the world and 2nd in Monarchist and Democratic Alliance for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 9,873.34 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
