The Republic of Aldund is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Garfield Wessex with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 27.411 billion Aldundians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government is primarily concerned with Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Law & Order aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eriel. The average income tax rate is 66.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aldundian economy, worth a remarkable 3,147 trillion Reis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,842 Reis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A popular saying is "a chicken for every pot and an abortion clinic on every street", hundreds of sailors ride the good ship Garfield Wessex day after day, Garfield Wessex's used car is held together by bumper stickers that support the opposition, and the main interest rates change daily based on the latest news story. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Aldund's national animal is the Dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Aldund is ranked 118,122nd in the world and 17th in New Western Atlantic for Most Stationary, with 309.23123959188 days.
