The Republic of Azelandes is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The devout population of 435 million Azelandeves are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 46.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Azelandesian economy, worth 27.7 trillion Azelandes Avetices a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is 63,631 Azelandes Avetices, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Cops with assault weaponry are forcing their way into private homes to search for terrorists, graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, attempts at growing pineapples in the desert have been unsuccessful, and museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azelandes's national animal is the Raven, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.
Azelandes is ranked 212,671st in the world and 236th in Arborhaven for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring zero on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
