The Republic of Ambiramus is a huge, pleasant nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 714 million Ambiramusians 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 medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 23.3%.

The Ambiramusian economy, worth 35.6 trillion golds a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 49,904 golds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 158,414 per year while the poor average 11,979, a ratio of 13.2 to 1.

Scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied dragon, the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, voting is voluntary, and the government regularly reassures citizens that there are no monsters under their beds. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ambiramus's national animal is the dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Ambiramus is ranked 216,430^th in the world and 93^rd in Realm of the Whispering Winds for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -5.02 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
