The Beautiful City at Sea of Namartis is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its compulsory military service, restrictive gun laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 17.159 billion Namartisians 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 minute, moralistic, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order and Spirituality are also considered important, while International Aid and Industry are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.

The Namartisian economy, worth 650 trillion Namarts a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Average income is 37,892 Namarts, with the richest citizens earning 7.8 times as much as the poorest.

Streaming video is considered to be a myth by most citizens, the citizenship exam requires years of study to actually pass, welfare funding has recently gone through the roof, and foreign lack of enthusiasm for Namartisian nose-flute disco metal is seen as a reasonable casus belli. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Namartis's national animal is the Left-Handed Chicken.

Namartis is ranked 230,785^th in the world and 2^nd in Pandoran States for Lowest Crime Rates, with 55.93 law-abiding acts per hour.
