The Constitutional Monarchy of A3161 is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Doc with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, strictly enforced bedtime, and sprawling nuclear power plants.

State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 160,943 biscs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

A3161's national animal is the vizsla, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
