The Holy Empire of Alannar is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, sprawling nuclear power plants, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.803 billion Alannarians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Alannarian economy, worth 277 trillion ciphers a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 153,463 ciphers, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 813,528 per year while the poor average 15,320, a ratio of 53.1 to 1.

Sex changes are routinely performed at Alannar's hospitals, pregnant hitchhikers with signs requesting rides to "competent care" are a common sight on Alannarian roads, fifteen-year-olds cannot walk younger siblings to school without a professional Childcare and Education Certificate, and school children declare that teachers "may confiscate our toys but they can never take our FREEDOM". Crime is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Alannar's national animal is the goblin shark, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Alannar is ranked 303,077^th in the world and 389^th in Bozarkia for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 462.08 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
