The LAAS YAH NIR of Aura Whisper is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, daily referendums, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 3.212 billion Aura Whisperians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 39.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Aura Whisperian economy, worth 238 trillion golds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 74,205 golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Coffee cups have grown in size to accommodate the huge ingredients list, every diamond ring sold is accompanied by a twenty-five page analysis and a waiver, the Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause, and politicians bribe ten-year-old geniuses to sit their aptitude tests. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aura Whisper's national animal is the penguin, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.
Aura Whisper is ranked 56,778th in the world and 4th in The Land of the Free for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,351.5 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
