The Hypercommunity of Almonaster is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Al Heffy with a fair hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 15.315 billion Asters hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ciudad del Monaster. The average income tax rate is 45.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Asterian economy, worth a remarkable 1,296 trillion Fracts a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Retail. Average income is 84,675 Fracts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Public intoxication has decreased ever since fraternities were banned, foreign powers often deal with problems that Almonaster can't handle, Al Heffy reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, and bad punctuation has come to a full stop. Crime is totally unknown. Almonaster's national animal is the Loon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Almonaster is ranked 271,169th in the world and 122nd in Canada for Most Armed, with 0.16 weapons per person.
