The Federation of Amalyd is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 796 million Amalydians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 33.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Amalydian economy, worth 9.84 trillion ageelias a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Cheese Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 12,358 ageelias, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amalyd's national animal is the Hhh, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Amalyd is ranked 75,938^th in the world and 26^th in The Sacred Elite for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 37.05 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
