“A witty saying proves nothing”

The Republic of Australiazia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Campbell Brown with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.024 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Social Equality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Melbourne. The average income tax rate is 60%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Tourism industry, followed by Information Technology and Book Publishing.

Abortions are routinely performed in Australiazia's hospitals, Australiazia is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, the government is reining in public spending, and female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Australiazia's national animal is the kangaroo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Australian Dollar.

Australiazia is ranked 84th in the region and 44,137th in the world for Largest Basket Weaving Sector.
