The Windswept Dreams of Arlizplot is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by lochy with a fair hand, and remarkable for its conspicuous electricity pylons, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.518 billion Arlizplotians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hoizu. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Arlizplotian economy, worth a remarkable 2,105 trillion Arils a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 221,214 Arils, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes, the most recent election was a close race between lochy and lochy, Arlizplotian novella fans become unusually flustered when thinking about lochy, and lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arlizplot's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Hoizunese.

Arlizplot is ranked 256,519^th in the world and 256^th in Starlight for Largest Black Market, with 149 billion Standard Monetary Units.
