The Foreign Civilisation of AliEN A is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Alien Baba with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.393 billion Aliens are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Seraphia. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Alienic economy, worth a remarkable 1,547 trillion Alienic Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 242,026 Alienic Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tourists outnumber citizens two to one, arguments about toilet seats being left up or down get surprisingly heated, the banshee wail foretells skies of death, and children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "love and peace!" as a way of life. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AliEN A's national animal is the Martian, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Alienism.

AliEN A is ranked 307,826^th in the world and 340^th in 10000 Islands for Most Devout, with 2.77 prayers per hour.
