The Kingdom of Almain is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Lord Paramount Elrid with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, avowedly heterosexual populace, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 28.657 billion Almainians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Myria. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 58.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Almainian economy, worth a remarkable 2,435 trillion Mains a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 84,990 Mains, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

It's not just poseurs who wear oversized sound-cancelling headphones as they walk the city streets, tax revenue is often intercepted by international accountants before ever seeing the national treasury, nobles' fancy titles no longer help them cut in line at the supermarket, and titles of nobility are packaged with Almainian citizenship in invite-only auctions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Almain's national animal is the Auroch, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is none.

Almain is ranked 68,367^th in the world and 3,621^st in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 73.4 law-abiding acts per hour.
