The Dissent Quashing Fist of Aurum Riders 511th Treasury is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 3.914 billion Aurum Riders 511th Treasuryians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.0%.

The very strong Aurum Riders 511th Treasuryian economy, worth 311 trillion Gold Coins 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 slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 79,523 Gold Coins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 302,279 per year while the poor average 14,506, a ratio of 20.8 to 1.

Glancing at the car radio display while driving is treated as attempted homicide, terrorist videos start by thanking their sponsors, wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", and children in school playgrounds can be heard chanting the hymns of the Order of Violet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aurum Riders 511th Treasury's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Aurum Riders 511th Treasury is ranked 267,283rd in the world and 8,282nd in Suspicious for Highest Food Quality, scoring 6.95 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
