The Democratic Republic of Aurn Atla Lars is a mammoth, cultured nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.121 billion Aurn Atla Larsians 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 Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Larsia. The average income tax rate is 92.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aurn Atla Larsian economy, worth 762 trillion Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,886 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Officials pull all-nighters to check immigrants for potential links to terrorists, arbitration is mightier than the sword, there has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, and East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aurn Atla Lars's national animal is the Tribble, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Aurn Atla Lars is ranked 6,974^th in the world and 104^th in the West Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 6,951.48 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
