The Factory of Honor Guard Aluminum Oxynitride is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Moe Elsass II with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 6.168 billion Aloneans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Burlington. The average income tax rate is 7.9%.

The Alonean economy, worth 286 trillion Bricks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Retail. Average income is 46,379 Bricks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Moe Elsass II has just been declared ruler of Honor Guard Aluminum Oxynitride in an international press conference, kindergarten teachers with ankle-bracelets are closely supervised by their parole officers, bars are packed at all hours, and sleeping on the job is recommended. Crime is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Honor Guard Aluminum Oxynitride's national animal is the Puppy, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Your Choices.

Honor Guard Aluminum Oxynitride is ranked 273,696^th in the world and 337^th in Empire of Love for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.69 kickbacks per hour.
