The Suzeranity of Emperor Carl is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by The Suzerain with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, infamous sell-swords, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, humorless population of 40.345 billion Imperial Citzens 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, corrupt government prioritizes Law & Order, although Healthcare, Environment, and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imperial City. The average income tax rate is 24.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Imperial economy, worth a remarkable 4,490 trillion Carloreans a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 111,306 Carloreans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods, corrupt paupers spend taxpayer Carloreans on liquor and tobacco, stealing from a clothesline is a serious offence, and gardeners must genetically test weeds for unique traits before digging them up. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Emperor Carl's national animal is the Liger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Old Code.

Emperor Carl is ranked 23,407^th in the world and 581^st in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 87.1 law-abiding acts per hour.
