The Republic of Amperarson is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, public floggings, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed population of 837 million Amperarsonians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.7%.

The powerhouse Amperarsonian economy, worth 73.4 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 87,663 bitcoins, with the richest citizens earning 9.1 times as much as the poorest.

Soldiers stream their classified military operations live for millions of fans, commemoration of the Great Amperregion War costs almost as much as the war itself, governments opposing Amperarson are beset by rebels, and being able to unblock a u-bend pipe is considered a universally essential skill. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amperarson's national animal is the porpoise, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Amperarson is ranked 276,036^th in the world and 23^rd in Amperregion for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 25.63 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
