The United States of Alkambria is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 347 million Alkambrians are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Alkambrian economy, worth 9.76 trillion Daullers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Retail, Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 28,134 Daullers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children's TV shows are having a gay old time, citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, Leader's family members carry literal get-out-of-jail-free cards, and seats at the back of the bus are reserved for homosexuals. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alkambria's national animal is the Black Vulture, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Alkambria is ranked 132,341st in the world and 2,570th in the South Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,167.88 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
