The People's Republic of Emberty is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The State Council with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, parental licensing program, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed population of 1.86 billion Embertans 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 Healthcare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shuuto. The average income tax rate is 50.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Embertan economy, worth 151 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 81,673 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, in life full of care there is no time to stop and stare, solving crossword puzzles requires fluency in at least five languages, and behind every local dictator is an Embertan advisor whispering in their ear. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Emberty's national animal is the phoenix.

Emberty is ranked 99,415^th in the world and 4,987^th in The North Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,008.85 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
