Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Armed Corporations of Aurora Islands is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by General John Westmoreland with an even hand, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, parental licensing program, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 35.034 billion Auroraians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurora City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Auroraian economy, worth an astonishing 35,939 trillion golden dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is a breathtaking 1,025,834 golden dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 9,608,540 per year while the poor average 9,227, a ratio of 1,041 to 1.

The Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet, the government nonchalantly sells old nukes to other countries, looting and pillaging are now considered vital intelligence-gathering activities, and the most ambitious parents buy a dozen lottery scratch-cards each week for their kids. Crime is totally unknown. Aurora Islands's national animal is the golden hummingbird, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Aurora Islands is ranked 286,170^th in the world and 400^th in United Kingdom for Safest, scoring 1.64 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
