The Primeval Empire of Alkarian Empire is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Keiserinne Elísabeþ af Hofstaðr with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 1.19 billion Alkarians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tálknagur. The average income tax rate is 20.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Alkarian economy, worth 39.4 trillion Gyldens a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,072 Gyldens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, Alkarian Empire has designated Tálknagur as its capital city, Keiserinne Elísabeþ af Hofstaðr has just been declared ruler of Alkarian Empire in an international press conference, and Okkartrú has been named as Alkarian Empire's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Alkarian Empire's national animal is the Iru, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Okkartrú.

Alkarian Empire is ranked 64,135^th in the world and 16^th in Saint Helene for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,385.38 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
