The System of Authors is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by ЗАА with an even hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 7.147 billion Authorsians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anime. The average income tax rate is 74.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Authorsian economy, worth 722 trillion Anushes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 100,969 Anushes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Telling someone to 'break a leg' is considered a criminal inducement to self harm, national park visitors are reporting a rash of poison ivy sightings, the government is a proud sponsor of the National Gaming Association, and exterminator companies deploy nerve gas in turf wars. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Authors's national animal is the Selestials, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Authors is ranked 129,142^nd in the world and 821^st in the Rejected Realms for Least Corrupt Governments, with 93.2 percentage of bribes refused.
