The Pure Land of Amituofo is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Amitabha Buddha with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, hatred of cheese, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.587 billion Amituofoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Amituofoan economy, worth 509 trillion Taels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 141,971 Taels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, cheese lovers have a case of the bleus, community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common, and most barbers are also surgeons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amituofo's national animal is the White Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Buddhism.

Amituofo is ranked 325,873^rd in the world and 5^th in The Lunch Table for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -13.08 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
