The Republic of Azosd is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Quano Zalan with a fair hand, and renowned for its national health service, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.386 billion Azosdians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Izova. The average income tax rate is 29.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Azosdian economy, worth a remarkable 1,799 trillion Kazoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 214,586 Kazoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Residents are readily ratting out rats in restaurants, artificial intelligences seeking exciting work are overcome with ennui, Occam's razor has sliced to pieces any childhood belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, and the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Azosd's national animal is the Zokor, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Azosd is ranked 179,419^th in the world and 1,995^th in The East Pacific for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 2,353.16 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
