The Technocratic Imperium of Alvecia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Xela with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 16.681 billion Alvecians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Healthcare, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Acydya. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Alvecian economy, worth a remarkable 3,022 trillion Denarii a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 181,175 Denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hostage-takers offer loyalty scheme points for prompt payment, the government is giving peace a chance, Super Barry Brothers is the most popular video game in the nation, and sullen teenagers in bright orange 'community payback' onesies can be seen picking litter at the roadside. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alvecia's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is none.

Alvecia is ranked 4,519th in the world and 190th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 176 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
