The Imperial Realm of Amatsuguni is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by PM Sakurada Kenji with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 6.059 billion Japanese have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amatsukaido. The average income tax rate is 51.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Amatsuguni economy, worth 724 trillion Yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 119,606 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

The government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion, political dissidents are cut off from essential services, the nation's interest in space is at an all-time high while interest in saving the planet is at an all-time low, and war vets look after war animals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amatsuguni's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Shinto.

Amatsuguni is ranked 26,522^nd in the world and 1,813^th in Lazarus for Most Patriotic, with 41.13 flags saluted per person per day.
