The Co-Prosperity Sphere of Auman is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Samoth Uyghur with an iron fist, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, compulsory military service, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 47.355 billion Aumanii are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry and Education are also considered important, while Environment and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zhamssassar Fortress. The average income tax rate is 1.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aumanii economy, worth an astonishing 19,078 trillion Tears of the Innocents a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 402,885 Tears of the Innocents, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Randomly bombing neighboring countries has become the new national sport, money grows on trees, insanely good theatre productions face government censorship, and tumbleweeds made of litter adorn city streets. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Auman's national animal is the Southern Fight-Snake, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Auman is ranked 163,768th in the world and 14th in Gholgoth for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,197.82 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
