The Federation of Aurelia Belka is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed population of 8.587 billion Aurelia Belkans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Central City. The average income tax rate is 18.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Aurelia Belkan economy, worth a remarkable 1,988 trillion Cens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 231,514 Cens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
The nation's student exchange programs are something of a one way street, most households' childcare costs are higher than their mortgage payments, 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Aurelia Belka's radio stations, and military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description. Crime is totally unknown. Aurelia Belka's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Aurelia Belka is ranked 276,083rd in the world and 117th in Ridgefield for Most Extreme, scoring 6.4 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
