The Most Serene Republic of Aleixandria is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Adán Alexander de Pinto with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.773 billion Aleixandrans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Heliopolis. The average income tax rate is 86.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aleixandran economy, worth a remarkable 1,499 trillion sicloes a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,840 sicloes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The word "sexagenarian" has taken on a whole new meaning, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, unstable couples are known to break up over which one gets parental leave, and the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Heliopolis Times is sold out. Crime is totally unknown. Aleixandria's national animal is the phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Aleixandria is ranked 50,927^th in the world and 54^th in Gay for Lowest Crime Rates, with 76.37 law-abiding acts per hour.
