The Republic of Aurgiot is a very large, socially progressive nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 191 million Aurgiotis enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 34.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Aurgioti economy, worth 8.50 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Average income is 44,498 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military refers to helpless combatants offering surrender as "sitting ducks", knitting needles have been banned in the name of public safety, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, and the nation faces constant invasions by foreign boy bands. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aurgiot's national animal is the falcon.

Aurgiot is ranked 89,458^th in the world and 419^th in Europe for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 2,920.18 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
