The Rogue Nation of Aquila Audax is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Eagle with an even hand, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, ritual sacrifices, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 1.827 billion Aquila Audaxians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The tiny, corrupt government prioritizes Industry, although Administration, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Welfare and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aquila Audax City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Aquila Audaxian economy, worth 220 trillion Lepidosaurias a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 120,879 Lepidosaurias, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 747,396 per year while the poor average 8,459, a ratio of 88.3 to 1.

Escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, education for the poor is learning to ask "do you want fries with that?", etiquette guides advise visitors to 'grovel gracefully', and Aquila Audax is notorious for its citizens' infidelity. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Aquila Audax's national animal is the Accipitridae, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Religion.

Aquila Audax is ranked 64,902nd in the world and 1,087th in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,680.68 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
