The Aloyian Lucky Christmas of Aloyium is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Santa Claus with a fair hand, and renowned for its lack of airports, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.56 billion Aloys love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Aloyian economy, worth 606 trillion Golden Candy Canes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 170,298 Golden Candy Canes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Adults pretending to be teenage girls claim to have wholesome motives, Yggdrassil spends billions upgrading public transport, the government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits, and straitjackets are a common religious garb. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aloyium's national animal is the Rudolph Wolf Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Athyism.

Aloyium is ranked 293,121st in the world and 395th in Astoria for Most Armed, with 0.1 weapons per person.
