The United Socialist States of Aupasia is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 781 million Aupasians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Education, although Law & Order, Defense, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Manigrad. The average income tax rate is 48.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Aupasian economy, worth 47.9 trillion Aupasian Dong a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 61,343 Aupasian Dong, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, the media seems excessively interested in what Leader is wearing this season, politicians sweat as journalists scour internet archives for any mention of them, and the state auctions off combat drones to fund war reparations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aupasia's national animal is the Lizard, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Aupasia is ranked 159,195th in the world and 48th in Socialists for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 286.53 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
