The Valliant Kingdom of Emerod is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Knight-Commander Emricus with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, daily referendums, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful, devout population of 5.204 billion Emerodders 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Altevan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 38.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Emerodian economy, worth a remarkable 1,021 trillion Keepsakes a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 196,363 Keepsakes, with the richest citizens earning 9.1 times as much as the poorest.

Atheists on vacation find Catholicism's scriptures make useful doorstops, school lessons are constantly interrupted by 'teacher needs a break' time, hospitals are amongst the best-funded in the region, and street crime is on the rise as police officers spend most of their time in prisons. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Emerod's national animal is the Horse, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Emerod is ranked 43,562^nd in the world and 23^rd in Angelic League for Most Developed, scoring 78.83 on the Human Development Index.
