The Republic of Aur0ra is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Byakuren Hijiri with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 7.899 billion Aur0rans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Namu-San. The average income tax rate is 42.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Aur0ran economy, worth 396 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 50,202 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

A shocking number of estate planners are beneficiaries of their clients' wills, surveillance cameras are banned, chrome-clad space marines are such stuff that dreams are made on, and Buddhism has been named as Aur0ra's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aur0ra's national animal is the bison, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Buddhism.

Aur0ra is ranked 120,483^rd in the world and 1,014^th in the Rejected Realms for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 1,975.35 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
