The Technocracy States of Azzarel is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Shepherd with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 12.936 billion Azzas are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Airstrip One. The average income tax rate is 29.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Azza economy, worth a remarkable 4,004 trillion credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 309,586 credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Swarms of present-laden delivery drones blot out the sun before major holidays, sworn provincial enemies must be held back in The Shepherd's cabinet meetings, calling tech support mid-shootout is a common occurrence, and the government denies that it has an agency overseeing plausible deniability of black-ops agencies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azzarel's national animal is the Meerkat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Azzarel is ranked 1,948th in the world and 53rd in The North Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 11,922.61 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
