The Sultanate of Aldrich Killian is a gargantuan, cultured nation, remarkable for its closed borders, deadly medical pandemics, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 16.76 billion Aldrich Killianians 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Spirituality, with Industry, Defense, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.

The powerhouse Aldrich Killianian economy, worth a remarkable 1,692 trillion Gavas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 100,962 Gavas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 363,790 per year while the poor average 20,036, a ratio of 18.2 to 1.

Forecasts predict rains of loose lead and mortar shells for the next six weeks, napalm is the tool of choice for disabling eco-unfriendly forestry operations, minefields are being deployed along the border to discourage potential emigrants from trying to leave, and retail staff are trained to take both inside leg measurements and the lives of their enemies. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Aldrich Killian's national animal is the rabbit, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Aldrich Killian is ranked 8,306^th in the world and 598^th in Balder for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 91,370.88 Standard Monetary Units.
