The Federal Commonwealth of Pax Aurea is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Gaius Proctus with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 36.679 billion Aureans 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, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Industry, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Defense is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pacifica. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Aurean economy, worth an astonishing 22,235 trillion Aurean Marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 606,229 Aurean Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Centuries-old legal documents detailing agnatic-cognatic gavelkind succession are being dusted off again, the canal flows through the land like a twisty turny thing, sports club owners are having a moneyball, and restaurants are required to specify whether their toilet paper was made in Pax Aurea. Crime is totally unknown. Pax Aurea's national animal is the wild cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Council of World Religions.

Pax Aurea is ranked 26^th in the world and 1^st in European Union for Lowest Crime Rates, with 361.99 law-abiding acts per hour.
