The Holy Empire of Alacryan is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, frequent executions, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, devout population of 256 million Alacryanians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vechor. The average income tax rate is 38.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Alacryanian economy, worth 22.8 trillion rubles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,995 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is seen to favor traditionalist religions, grocery stores can be audibly identified by the giggling emerging from them, Alacryan has designated Vechor as its capital city, and teenage girls worry that they'll be unpopular if their skirts aren't short enough. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alacryan's national animal is the basilisk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Alacryan is ranked 38,683^rd in the world and 652^nd in the West Pacific for Safest, scoring 106.14 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
