The Parliamentary monarchy of Alvosa is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 576 million Alvosans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cadalla. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.6%.

The very strong Alvosan economy, worth 44.6 trillion Alvosan Sallers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Gambling. Average income is 77,497 Alvosan Sallers, with the richest citizens earning 6.4 times as much as the poorest.

The nation gives peace a chance - usually one in a million, aspiring musicians couldn't give away their music if they tried, obstetricians are not allowed to publish ultrasound pictures of fetuses in medical journals, and there are no more heroes any more. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alvosa's national animal is the Duck with 8 legs and laser eyes, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Alvosa is ranked 126,846th in the world and 67th in Aspen for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 1,872.6 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
