The Armed Republic of Azerrat is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, state-planned economy, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.682 billion Azerratians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Education also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moria. The average income tax rate is 91.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Azerratian economy, worth 367 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 218,427 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Citizen radio operators agree that the certification test can open up a world of hertz, the crispy fried liver of an Apatosaurus is prized as a tasty treat by vagrants, forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, and citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azerrat's national animal is the Apatosaurus, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Azerrat is ranked 12,340th in the world and 307th in the South Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,711.51 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
