The Dreamland of Aalf is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Sonya with an even hand, and renowned for its suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed population of 24.688 billion Aalfians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Spirituality, although Administration is also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Randa. The average income tax rate is 27.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Aalfian economy, worth a remarkable 1,023 trillion Aalves a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 41,472 Aalves, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

The state believes that children are what you make of them, cynism has been named as Aalf's national religion, Sonya has just been declared ruler of Aalf in an international press conference, and Aalf has designated Randa as its capital city. Crime is relatively low, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Aalf's national animal is the blackbird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is cynism.

Aalf is ranked 176,507^th in the world and 5^th in The spaghetti land for Most Primitive, scoring -68.56 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
