The Democratic Union of Azlaake is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President David Sanderson with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.664 billion Azlaakeans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ubokia. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Azlaakean economy, worth a remarkable 1,734 trillion Azlaaki dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,700 Azlaaki dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Older ladies are inundated with offers to help them cross the road, traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, the latest national park is visited by more sharks than people, and manufacturers of biodegradable plastics have to wait for months to show evidence of organic decomposition. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azlaake's national animal is the Coyote, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Inclusivism.

Azlaake is ranked 10,529^th in the world and 1^st in The Azlaaki Confederation for Lowest Crime Rates, with 100.1 law-abiding acts per hour.
