The Republic of Enberch is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its frequent executions, unlimited-speed roads, and public floggings. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 587 million Enberchians 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 government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 35.3%.

The very strong Enberchian economy, worth 39.1 trillion Lumiones a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,651 Lumiones, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

The nation forgives those who are big enough to admit they made a mistake, burnt-out forty-foot-tall wicker men dot the countryside, the nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned, and thousands of children die every day from easily curable illnesses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Enberch's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Enberch is ranked 41,147th in the world and 13th in Holo for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 5,855.31 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
