The Empire of Alefo is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by King Seu with an iron fist, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, anti-smoking policies, and compulsory vegetarianism. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 18.414 billion Alefans 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, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alefo City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.8%.

The enormous but inefficient Alefian economy, worth a remarkable 1,345 trillion Alefs 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, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. 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 73,083 Alefs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 216,340 per year while the poor average 19,392, a ratio of 11.2 to 1.

Government officials who do an offal job get smoked, the government's fruit business reeks of rotting produce and corruption, the military claims that their threatening letters are signed with the blood of their enemies, and the nation's spies are always on break time. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alefo's national animal is the Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Alefism.

Alefo is ranked 329,675^th in the world and 18^th in Devia for Highest Drug Use, scoring 0.51 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
