The Grand Nomadic Empire of The Iron Khagnate is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Yöbgü Kaghan with an iron fist, and renowned for its digital currency, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.703 billion Alchons are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chashmara. The average income tax rate is 88.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Alchonian economy, worth 652 trillion Soms a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 176,231 Soms, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Parents live in fear of governmental 'child protection' squads, planespotters are emigrating in droves, sociologists can charge whatever fee they like as the nation tries to find itself, and Yöbgü Kaghan has been seen stealthily slicing fifths off bread loaves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Iron Khagnate's national animal is the Horse, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Tengrism.

The Iron Khagnate is ranked 7,680^th in the world and 49^th in Europe for Most Patriotic, with 69.65 flags saluted per person per day.
