The Holy Kingdom of Central Almyra is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Claude von Riegan with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, frequent executions, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 7.653 billion Almyrans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Myrrha. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.6%.

The powerhouse Almyran economy, worth 879 trillion Gold Ingots a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,955 Gold Ingots, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Referenda can be called for any law at the request of at least one third of the voting population, the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, city rooftops are pockmarked with the shattered remains of high velocity delivery drones, and the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Central Almyra's national animal is the Snow Wolf, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Church of Seiros.

Central Almyra is ranked 57,644^th in the world and 3,518^th in Balder for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 3,810.11 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
