The Kingdom of Ernestria is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Ernest VII Soter II with an even hand, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, frequent executions, and ubiquitous missile silos. The devout population of 6.06 billion Ernestrians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bodendorf. The average income tax rate is 37.6%.

The Ernestrian economy, worth 261 trillion Konvertible Marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,119 Konvertible Marks, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

Women earn less than half the salary of men if they can even find a job, pharmacists increasingly claim they are morally obligated to take long lunches, forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, and one does not simply walk into the tundra. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ernestria's national animal is the talbot hound, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ernestria is ranked 74,236^th in the world and 11^th in Western Atlantic for Fattest Citizens, with 12.44 Obesity Rate.
