The Empire of Emere is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Lyna Mahariel with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.783 billion Emereans 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 enormous government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eyrie. The average income tax rate is 86.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Emerean economy, worth a remarkable 1,440 trillion Lions a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 122,230 Lions, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Boys who take just one date to the high school prom are called 'losers', purported secret military bases are dismissed by Lyna Mahariel to be highly-advanced toilet factories, more sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people, and the government is hoping that medical aid will speak louder than human rights abuses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Emere's national animal is the Gryphon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Emere is ranked 77,455^th in the world and 78^th in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Most Politically Free, scoring 67.43 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
