The Democratic Republic of Apoar is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Bob Roed with an iron fist, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, prohibition of alcohol, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.44 billion Apoarines are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aporqn. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 63.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Apoarin economy, worth a remarkable 1,526 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 205,200 marks, with the richest citizens earning 8.2 times as much as the poorest.

The house always wins, a violent scene on television results in mass mobilization of the National Guard, raccoons are plump and satiated, and overly distant dads are conscripted into national nappy service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Apoar's national animal is the burger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Crauism.

Apoar is ranked 242,635^th in the world and 11,378^th in Osiris for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 141.82 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
