The Community of AA is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its closed borders, punitive income tax rates, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 19.905 billion AAians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 71.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient AAian economy, worth a remarkable 2,606 trillion Golds 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 large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. 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 an impressive 130,933 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

All facts are created equal, the state-controlled media salutes those about to spy, gun ownership is compulsory, and retiring citizens are dragged away in the middle of the night by mysterious men in black suits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AA's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

AA is ranked 279,358^th in the world and 1,163^rd in Lily for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -8.31 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
