The Grand Imperium of Volkhar is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by King Alexandros Capulet IX with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 24.423 billion Imperials 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 juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexandria. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Imperial economy, worth an astonishing 14,491 trillion Septims a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is a breathtaking 593,357 Septims, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A degree in King Alexandros Capulet IX Science with a Minor in Awesomeology starts many political careers, the Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters, children often explain to their parents that the Mega Ultimate Sword Fist was worth the thousand-Septim charge on their phone bill, and every spring railroad foundations erode to reveal human remains. Crime is totally unknown. Volkhar's national animal is the Kraken, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Volkhar is ranked 364^th in the world and 1^st in Mahtomedi for Highest Average Incomes, with 593,357.11 Standard Monetary Units.
