The Imperial Dominion of Longweather is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Dresden Mourningway with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, humorless population of 22.765 billion Alor are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oblivion. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Alor economy, worth a remarkable 9,999 trillion Imperial Yoras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 439,260 Imperial Yoras, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's a bright dawn ahead for Longweather, the government is continually probing the galaxy in search of alien life, the sound of office water cooler chatter has been replaced by the whirring of computer cooling fans, and bad punctuation has come to a full stop. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Longweather's national animal is the Light Blue Longweather Sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Church of Thesse.

Longweather is ranked 12,100^th in the world and 50^th in the Pacific for Largest Populations, with 22.8 billion capita.
