The Imperial Federation of Ghearmain is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Risteard III with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, keen interest in outer space, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 22.736 billion Ghearmanaigh 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 tiny, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caipitil chathair. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Ghearmanach economy, worth a remarkable 8,743 trillion Crowns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 384,557 Crowns, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

In life full of care there is no time to stop and stare, all the playground's a stage for Ghearmanach schoolchildren, class clowns are frequently listed among the most dangerous criminals in the nation, and Leon is one of the most popular forenames in Ghearmain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Ghearmain's national animal is the Leon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Ghearmain is ranked 8,418^th in the world and 482^nd in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 104.62 law-abiding acts per hour.
