“If you want peace, prepare for war.”

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

The United Republic of Aurasreich is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.236 billion Aurasreichians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Iron City. The average income tax rate is 91.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aurasreichian economy, worth 486 trillion Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 150,406 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Referenda are held for every conceivable government action, welfare funding has recently gone through the roof, youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights, and citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aurasreich's national animal is the Griffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Aurasreich is ranked 139,431^st in the world and 3,074^th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,084.39 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
