2418-B, one of the first true AIs in our nation, is known for being extremely peaceful and pacifistic. In stark contrast with 12-8B.

In our language, because of the tones you use, you can get the words "mathematics" and "blood transfusion" mixed up.

We have no sentient equines. Though horse-riding is still a popular, which is a given considering Eldona's agrarian nature.

Citizens can vote on a law, although many just don't care, but the voice of the people who care can make a difference. Voting is either offline or online.

While citizens of Great Vaeland can vote, it is only to appoint local politicians to the Vaelandic Parliament. While the Imperial Parliament has great power and freedom, it is entirely dwarfed by the powers of Empress Astrid. The empress's word is law.

Plutocratic Evil Empire™ situated in a post-apocalyptic Decopunk North America. Extreme PMT, yet socially stuck in the interwar/immediate post-war era, with Jazz music and flapper culture alongside nanotechnology and Martian colonies. Tier I power of the Frencoverse.

There is a variant of the IS-44 supertank armed with a nuclear howitzer in service with the Mechanocracy's STRATFOR. About seven of these tanks have been deployed to Turkey and Azerbaijan in the event of a successful Caliphate counterattack against the Red Army in Iraq and Syria, but none have been used.

Lucadroids, named after George Lucas and exactly designed like the droids in SW, are quickly becoming the most used droid in the NDMP for their cheapness, easy transportation, and lethality in mass numbers.

The gun pictured is not a laser, however, but a normal gun that uses either AP, HE, or flechette rounds. Of course, the gun can be exchanged at will.

Our military has no infantry. Our closest equivalent unit is the Gaia-1 Main Battle Tank, which is basically our lightest ground craft. Even then, though, most countries would classify it as a "Heavy" tank.

We are so advanced because we focused on developing tech well after the Great War, and the initial aftermath did not stunt our technological progress.
