The Oppressed Peoples of Azimuth Runner is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 2.393 billion Azimuth Runnerians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Environment are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.2%.

The strong Azimuth Runnerian economy, worth 100 trillion catnips a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 41,863 catnips, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 257,887 per year while the poor average 2,957, a ratio of 87.2 to 1.

TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, the tenet of free speech is held dear, Harry Potter books are banned, and parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Azimuth Runner's national animal is the black cat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Azimuth Runner is ranked 5,791^st in the world and 8^th in Prison for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 6,589.49 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
