The Holy United Realms of Emdilur is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Amtur with a fair hand, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, rampant corporate plagiarism, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.221 billion Emdilurians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Geldrazet. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Emdilurian economy, worth 212 trillion Kertus a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 174,112 Kertus, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,249,802 per year while the poor average 7,853, a ratio of 159 to 1.

The nation leads The League in per capita stalking, small shoes often wash up on the beach, young people crowd pizza parlors praying to 'The Supreme Pizza, His Immaculate Munchiness', and the moon's craters are more numerous every day. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Emdilur's national animal is the Serpent, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Chthonism.

Emdilur is ranked 53,723^rd in the world and 35^th in The League for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 4,562.73 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
