The Matriarchy of Ausnakulia is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Tav Telkan with a fair hand, and renowned for its hatred of cheese, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.65 billion Ausnakulians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Balinfei. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Ausnakulian economy, worth 837 trillion baht a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 109,489 baht, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Graffiti graces every city's streets, prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, children are raised bilingual from an early age, and travelers are subject to extensive searches if beet stains are visible on their clothing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ausnakulia's national animal is the emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ausnakulia is ranked 223,337^th in the world and 8,733^rd in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring -3.16 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
