The Empire of Empire Des Deux Republiques is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by l'empereur Jean 1er with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, public floggings, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, devout population of 8.729 billion Franlonais are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pariz. The average income tax rate is 79.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Franlonais economy, worth 890 trillion francs a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 101,997 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside, AI chatbots generate grayscale images when asked for a picture of the truth, the nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle, and the Franlonais foreign aid program is quick to provide starving children with the latest video games. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Empire Des Deux Republiques's national animal is the Aigle Blanc Courroné, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianisme.

Empire Des Deux Republiques is ranked 218,218^th in the world and 5,200^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -2.97 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
