The Emperor of Alexios is a mammoth, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 5.623 billion Alexiosians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Spirituality, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 40.2%.

The strong Alexiosian economy, worth 341 trillion soliduses a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 60,677 soliduses, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 206,404 per year while the poor average 13,148, a ratio of 15.7 to 1.

People reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, science labs across the country languish in cobwebs as the government turns its attentions to spiritual matters, the number of deaths due to poor fungus identification is mushrooming, and Leader has been known to threaten dissenting citizens with a machine gun at press conferences. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alexios's national animal is the kraken, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Alexios is ranked 181,347^th in the world and 6^th in Byzantion for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 331.87 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
