The Kingdom of Emerses is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Queen Star Surfer with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, smutty television, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.549 billion Emersians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magna Coltis. The average income tax rate is 40.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Emersian economy, worth a remarkable 2,950 trillion Emersian bits a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 189,738 Emersian bits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, the nation's train stations are widely considered to be the ugliest in Pony Lands, the nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air, and every spring railroad foundations erode to reveal human remains. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Emerses's national animal is the cardinal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Imperial Orthodox Harmonism.

Emerses is ranked 122,738th in the world and 13th in Pony Lands for Most Stationary, with 284.31524859368 days.
