The Armed Corporations of Aurora Islands is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by General John Westmoreland with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, infamous sell-swords, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 34.76 billion Auroraians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurora City. Income tax is unheard of.
The frighteningly efficient Auroraian economy, worth an astonishing 35,538 trillion golden dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is a breathtaking 1,022,398 golden dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 9,576,349 per year while the poor average 9,197, a ratio of 1,041 to 1.
Academics have a bone to pick with free market entrepreneurs, the monarch frequently needs protecting from misfiring protection, Auroraian novella fans become unusually flustered when thinking about General John Westmoreland, and the booming slave trade is now government-funded. Crime is totally unknown. Aurora Islands's national animal is the golden hummingbird, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Aurora Islands is ranked 750th in the world and 2nd in United Kingdom for Most Cultured, scoring 429 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
