The Democratic Republic of Algrovia is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working population of 522 million Algrovians 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, moralistic government prioritizes Welfare, although Law & Order, Administration, and Defense are also considered important, while Environment and Public Transport receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mayvich. The average income tax rate is 33.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Algrovian economy, worth 31.8 trillion Goldis a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 60,969 Goldis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

A survey of the nation's rivers and children has shown that pesticide levels are at an all-time regional high, power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky, constipated-looking politicians are uptight about potty mouths, and tardiness has increased after carpooling was classified as a criminal offense. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Algrovia's national animal is the Dolphin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Algrovia is ranked 113,342^nd in the world and 2^nd in Corquala for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 1,572.93 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
