The Empire of Allancia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Arminemagne I with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, anti-smoking policies, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 15.368 billion Allancians 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Battenburg. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Allancian economy, worth a remarkable 3,083 trillion Myvolons a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 200,619 Myvolons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's faithful often say there is a higher power watching over them, Allancian watches list strained wrists as a common side effect, political candidates who don't release their birth certificates are presumed to have been born in Maxtopia, and barbers who trim a few inches of hair bill the government for their labor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Allancia's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Terranism.

Allancia is ranked 1,821^st in the world and 1^st in Auld for Lowest Crime Rates, with 136.62 Law-abiding Acts Per Hour.
