The Autocracy of Alorgaze is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Kaledrone Z with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, ubiquitous missile silos, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 9.889 billion Gazians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alorgan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Alorgazean economy, worth a remarkable 2,910 trillion Agands a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 294,321 Agands, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,357,937 per year while the poor average 38,559, a ratio of 35.2 to 1.

The government only announces the deaths of its members when it's convenient, members of ethnic minorities are more often called "boy" or "girl" than by their actual names, an increasing number of animal species are named 'Bob', and the government asks not what you can do for your country but what you can do to tidy their country homes. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Alorgaze's national animal is the Gazian Cobra, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheism.

Alorgaze is ranked 850th in the world and 2nd in Regionless for Most Corrupt Governments, with 510.28 kickbacks per hour.
