The Empire of Eirdam is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Riqi Alka with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, infamous sell-swords, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.022 billion Eirdamians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fara. The average income tax rate is 64.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Eirdamian economy, worth 297 trillion Rupiahs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 146,979 Rupiahs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

You need a signed affidavit from a registered psychiatrist to claim that you have crazy low prices, the sanitised and dull music festivals of Eirdam are famed for their reasonable volume levels, self-driving cars are unpopular due to suspicion that they murder their passengers, and unwary hikers climbing the bluffs of Mount Fara make great practice for foreign snipers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eirdam's national animal is the Garuda, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Eirdam is ranked 16,059^th in the world and 902^nd in Osiris for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,159.53 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
