The People's Republic of Aralia is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, soft-spoken computers, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, cynical population of 3.202 billion Aralians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 69.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Aralian economy, worth 266 trillion Aral Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 83,355 Aral Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Large-girthed charity workers assign themselves healthy wages for their work with starving children, EpiPen sales have skyrocketed, cash-strapped junkies lick rabbits for a cheap high, and there's a bright dawn ahead for Aralia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aralia's national animal is the Albatros, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Aralia is ranked 282,021^st in the world and 441^st in The League for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -12.08 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
