The Empire of Azelmi is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Empress Mariya with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 1.841 billion Azelmians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tsukikawa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.9%.

The thriving Azelmian economy, worth 165 trillion Yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 89,692 Yen, with the richest citizens earning 8.2 times as much as the poorest.

Students consistently complain that the wi-fi ate their homework, passwords to nuclear codes must now contain upper and lower case characters, students learn how to disarm mines before understanding basic arithmetic, and political dissidents are cut off from essential services. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azelmi's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Azelmi is ranked 154,429^th in the world and 802^nd in the Outback for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 389.24 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
