The Disputed Territories of Azerda is a small, orderly nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 32 million Azerdans 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 enormous, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 63.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Azerdan economy, worth 1.20 trillion Азрасs 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 Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 37,524 Азрасs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and government police forces protect public schools from the threat of protest. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azerda's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Azerda is ranked 147,998^th in the world and 312^th in Communitas for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,054.15 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
