The Federation of Aurelac is a mid-sized, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 62 million Aurelacians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 52.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Aurelacian economy, worth 1.08 trillion Aurelac Labor-Hours a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 17,371 Aurelac Labor-Hours, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leader's reputation is hard as nails, artists are renowned for their ability to make art pieces out of thin air, the nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, and high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate. Crime is totally unknown. Aurelac's national animal is the Osprey, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Aurelac is ranked 142,566^th in the world and 451^st in Talonia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 452.28 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
