The Kingdom of Alba Lata is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 6.649 billion Albans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 22.8%.

The Alban economy, worth 296 trillion Alban Ambers a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is 44,585 Alban Ambers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Psychiatrists that date patients are congratulated on their romantic conquests, Alba Lata has designated Alba Lata City as its capital city, Leader has just been declared ruler of Alba Lata in an international press conference, and a major religion has been named as Alba Lata's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alba Lata's national animal is the eagle.
