The Violet Duchy of Emerie is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Tar-Ciryatan with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, soft-spoken computers, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 17.069 billion Emeris 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 large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eldalondė. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Emeriean economy, worth a remarkable 4,390 trillion Florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 257,208 Florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Young and brooding teens are welcomed with open arms to the Dogwarts School of Strangeness and Sorcery, government statisticians explain census inaccuracies by declaring that "Sith happens", spies caught red-handed are served cocktails on their first-class flights home, and construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway. Crime is totally unknown. Emerie's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Emerie is ranked 115,068th in the world and 1,929th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 332.93945358528 days.
