The Imperium of AlwaLov is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Imperador Abelardo Cruz with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.744 billion AlwaLovians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Osíris. The average income tax rate is 70.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse AlwaLovian economy, worth 136 trillion Ouroes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 78,449 Ouroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Priests are being drafted by the church load, all mothers are allowed six months fully-paid maternity leave, whipping posts and lashes have been transferred to the Historical Museum of AlwaLovian Embarrassments, and drill sergeants yell in the ears of bespectacled nerds in cybermilitary "reboot camps". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AlwaLov's national animal is the Leão, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Ísis.

AlwaLov is ranked 36,944^th in the world and 492^nd in The Communist Bloc for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 189.37 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
