The Republic of AVR04 is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, public floggings, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.951 billion AVR04ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 38.8%.

The powerhouse AVR04ian economy, worth 241 trillion caskcmkas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 123,961 caskcmkas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', the environment is gorgeous so long as you're looking up, the sun now sets on the AVR04ian Empire, and animal liberationists receive government funding to break into animal research labs. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AVR04's national animal is the cacascasc, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

AVR04 is ranked 73,895^th in the world and 1,640^th in the Rejected Realms for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 406.33 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
