The Commonwealth of Alice Bay is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Minister Patricia Aronson with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, irreverence towards religion, and enforced nudity. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 18.101 billion Alice Bayians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Welfare, although Industry, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bay City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 42.8%.

The powerhouse Alice Bayian economy, worth a remarkable 1,344 trillion Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Book Publishing. Average income is 74,264 Pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 245,954 per year while the poor average 16,749, a ratio of 14.7 to 1.

The government has spent days debating the merits of a petition calling for a ban on sporks, minority children spend hours bussing to schools miles away from home, the government regularly reassures citizens that there are no monsters under their beds, and friendly fire incidents usually result in severe burns. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alice Bay's national animal is the Kingfisher, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Aristotelic Church.

Alice Bay is ranked 211,475^th in the world and 3^rd in Trimaris for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,012.95 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
