The Constitutional Monarchy of A3161 is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Doc with an even hand, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 17.349 billion A3161ians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Law & Order, and Public Transport also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bigburg. The average income tax rate is 13.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient A3161ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,808 trillion biscs a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 161,900 biscs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign entanglements are getting spicy, the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet, wilderness-dwelling hermits are surprised to find railway stations on their front doorsteps, and selling advanced CPUs to anti-A3161ian terrorists is no chip on the government's shoulders. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. A3161's national animal is the vizsla, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

A3161 is ranked 3,974^th in the world and 121^st in the South Pacific for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 89.29 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
