The Holy Empire of Emily is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its burgeoning Lion population. The quiet, industrious population of 15.763 billion Emilyians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 16.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Emilyian economy, worth 709 trillion Yen a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Soda Sales, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 45,004 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, Emily's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, and tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Emily's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Emily is ranked 79,051^st in the world and 32^nd in Jenny for Most Beautiful Environments, with 597.2 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
