The Dictatorship of Azealand Isle is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Lord Azizul with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ritual sacrifices, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 4.279 billion Azealand Islanders 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 enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Azealand Dungeon. The average income tax rate is 93.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Azealand Islean economy, worth 568 trillion Azealand Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 132,895 Azealand Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Prisoners regularly escape detention posing as scarecrows, citizens living in underground cities have developed a healthy green glow, torture is illegal, and all fantasy fiction has officially been deemed non-canon. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azealand Isle's national animal is the Saltwater crocodile, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Sobekism.

Azealand Isle is ranked 113,658^th in the world and 1,910^th in The East Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,310.8 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
