The Imperial Dominion of Longweather is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Emperor Dresden Mourningway with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, humorless population of 22.778 billion Alor are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oblivion. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Alor economy, worth a remarkable 9,991 trillion Imperial Yoras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 438,629 Imperial Yoras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious, sex changes are routinely performed at Longweather's hospitals, bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, and the Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Longweather's national animal is the Light Blue Longweather Sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Church of Thesse.

Longweather is ranked 1,601^st in the world and 42^nd in the Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 105 flags saluted per person per day.
