The Kingdom of AWDES is a small, safe nation, renowned for its state-planned economy and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 26 million AWDESians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 47.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The weak AWDESian economy, worth 731 billion Alphas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 28,097 Alphas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, and high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AWDES's national animal is the Dragon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

AWDES is ranked 126,399^th in the world and 77^th in Eladria for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,607.73 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
