The State of Adler River is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by High Commissioner with a fair hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 30.53 billion Adler Riverians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The very strong Adler Riverian economy, worth a remarkable 1,015 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is 33,247 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 226,044 per year while the poor average 1,786, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Adler River's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, Adler River has designated Westminster as its capital city, and High Commissioner has just been declared ruler of Adler River in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Adler River's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Adler River is ranked 288,299^th in the world and 10^th in Belize for Lowest Crime Rates, with 34.71 law-abiding acts per hour.
