The Empire of Armonker is a huge, cultured nation, ruled by Overlord Kratos with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 821 million Armonkerians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imperialism. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Armonkerian economy, worth 136 trillion Antimatters a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Gambling. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 165,668 Antimatters, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,228,738 per year while the poor average 6,648, a ratio of 184 to 1.

Judges are all-powerful, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, children are often punished for the sins of the fathers, and the nation leads The North Pacific in per capita stalking. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Armonker's national animal is the Saber Toothed Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Armonker is ranked 273,895th in the world and 5,955th in The North Pacific for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -10.95 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
