The Empire of Polmenania is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Phoenix Emperor Jorad Gunther with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, public floggings, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 7.089 billion Polmenanias 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, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Industry also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ariosa. The average income tax rate is 86.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Polmenanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,661 trillion Quid a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 234,377 Quid, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The Party has more splits than a yo-yo dieter's trousers, citizens must pay to enjoy Polmenania's pristine beaches, the government keeps its thumb on the scales of justice, and people say chess victor Phoenix Emperor Jorad Gunther can kill you with mind-bullets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Polmenania's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Baptist Christianity.

Polmenania is ranked 305,552nd in the world and 142nd in Avaldonia for Most Secular, with 3.86 Atheism Rate.
