The Awe Inspiring Lands of Alfheim is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 8.827 billion Alfheimars enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The tiny, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order is also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.4%.

The strong Alfheimian economy, worth 411 trillion Gelders a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 46,660 Gelders, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 302,477 per year while the poor average 2,878, a ratio of 105 to 1.

Appliance stores are finding spy cameras embedded in their unboxed merchandise, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, military spending recently hit a new high, and the tenet of free speech is held dear. Crime is a serious problem. Alfheim's national animal is the Deier, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Alfheim is ranked 307,322^nd in the world and 2^nd in Nine Realms for Safest, scoring 12.5 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
