The French National Republic of The Kingdom of Orlais is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by President Emmanuel Macron with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 6.974 billion French are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.8%.

The strong French economy, worth 526 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Gambling. Average income is 75,541 Euros, with the richest citizens earning 7.8 times as much as the poorest.

Nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, conversion therapy coupons are a popular present for coming of age ceremonies, Roman Catholicism has been named as The Kingdom of Orlais's national religion, and the military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force. The Kingdom of Orlais's national animal is the Eagle and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

The Kingdom of Orlais is ranked 44,111^th in the world and 18^th in Greater Middle East for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 5,786.17 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
