The Republic of Aletian is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Tom Cleverey with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate population of 14.204 billion Aletias 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 Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elrios. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Aletianian economy, worth a remarkable 3,170 trillion Als a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 223,203 Als, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government builds houses for foreign newcomers, Tom Cleverey has more friends than ever before, citizens insist that there's no law against standing downwind when marijuana crops are burned off, and stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aletian's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Neko.

Aletian is ranked 7,770^th in the world and 430^th in Lazarus for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,845.91 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
