The Republic of Adritry is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Cleo Gibson with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, enslaved workforce, and national health service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.263 billion Adritryians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.4%.

The all-consuming Adritryian economy, worth 102 trillion florins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 81,423 florins, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 476,258 per year while the poor average 6,532, a ratio of 72.9 to 1.

Public urination is on the increase, toy versions of heroin paraphernalia let kids pretend to be their favourite TV characters, 4-year-olds studying for their mathematics exams are anxious that they will be unemployable in adulthood if they fail, and exam halls are littered with used needles and empty pill bottles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Adritry's national animal is the dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Adritry is ranked 312,422nd in the world and 21st in Two for Nicest Citizens, with 0.76 average smiles per day.
