The Republic of Aperture Laboratories is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Cave Johnson with an iron fist, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 23.78 billion Aperture Laboratoriesians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry and Law & Order are also considered important. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.8%.
The thriving Aperture Laboratoriesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,484 trillion Weighted Companion Cubes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Pizza Delivery, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 62,417 Weighted Companion Cubes, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 250,043 per year while the poor average 10,454, a ratio of 23.9 to 1.
A dictator has seized power and outlawed elections, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', the police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, and a typical fast food menu item could serve a small army. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Aperture Laboratories's national animal is the robot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Science.
Aperture Laboratories is ranked 5,196th in the world and 71st in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 3,204.70628232 days.
