The Republic of Alaravia is a colossal, genial nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, aversion to nipples, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The democratic population of 2.827 billion Alaravians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 65.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Alaravian economy, worth 370 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 130,968 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics, bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, pet loving officers arrest citizens who don't give their dogs enough biscuits, and the average video game can be completed over lunch break. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alaravia's national animal is the Swift, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Alaravia is ranked 18,140^th in the world and 331^st in the South Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 95,710.7 Standard Monetary Units.
