The Empire of Armonker is a huge, cultured nation, ruled by Overlord Kratos with an iron fist, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, enslaved workforce, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 794 million Armonkerians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imperialism. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Armonkerian economy, worth 131 trillion Antimatters a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Gambling. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 165,631 Antimatters, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,163,943 per year while the poor average 8,020, a ratio of 145 to 1.

Airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, when shaking hands with foreign leaders Overlord Kratos wears an armoured gauntlet, people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, and city budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Armonker's national animal is the Saber Toothed Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Armonker is ranked 45,929th in the world and 1,010th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 4,391.9 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
