The Empire of The 9th Legio is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Augustus with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, frequent executions, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working population of 15.405 billion Legionaries enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexandria. The average income tax rate is 71.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Legionnaire economy, worth a remarkable 2,964 trillion Drachmas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 192,462 Drachmas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

Large sections of The 9th Legio have been named national reserves to protect the native tribes living there, the saying 'break a leg' is now taken literally, drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, and the Supreme Court vehemently protects civil rights and the right to privacy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The 9th Legio's national animal is the Bull, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

The 9th Legio is ranked 22,743rd in the world and 1,247th in Balder for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 6,664.4 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
