The Armed Corporations of Aurora Islands is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by General John Westmoreland with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.99 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Defence, although Law & Order and Commerce are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurora City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining industries.

Commercial jingles have been ham-handedly forced into world renowned symphonies, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, extreme political groups are outlawed, and pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Aurora Islands's national animal is the golden hummingbird, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the golden dollar.

Aurora Islands is ranked 1st in NationStates and 81st in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 26 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
