The Republic of Aultic States is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.184 billion Aulticans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Trangow. The average income tax rate is 73.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aultican economy, worth 129 trillion Aulas a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 109,636 Aulas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All new "spies" are fifteen-year-old acne-ridden kids on computers, Leader has been known to make speeches in fishing waders, giant beards and handlebar moustaches are increasingly popular, and Aultic States has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aultic States's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Aultic States is ranked 264,048^th in the world and 179^th in Thaecia for Most Patriotic, with 1.08 flags saluted per person per day.
