The New Eagle And Navian Imperia of Ardentiana is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Empress Maria Buona Beriataham with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful population of 3.501 billion Ardentianans 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Vista. The average income tax rate is 72.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ardentianan economy, worth 388 trillion Calatarians a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,920 Calatarians, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", patriotic citizens chant "there's only one Ardentiana" at foreigners, ride-sharing often involves some passengers sitting on the roof rack, and the average video game can be completed over lunch break. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ardentiana's national animal is the Ardentiana Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Ardentiana is ranked 8,767^th in the world and 228^th in Europe for Safest, scoring 121.73 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
