The Republic of Alets7 is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its enslaved workforce, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.75 billion Alets7ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 59.5%.

The all-consuming Alets7ian economy, worth 500 trillion guilders a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 105,411 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, goldfish bowls are three metres in diameter, a suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, and foreign countries consider stepping on their grass to be a serious offense. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alets7's national animal is the dove, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Alets7 is ranked 119,602nd in the world and 2,161st in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 300.61642566092 days.
