The Borderlands of Alonea is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Chief Maya with a fair hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy. The democratic, devout population of 3.43 billion Aloneans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Winterdon. The average income tax rate is 30.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Alonean economy, worth 138 trillion Snowflakes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 40,339 Snowflakes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Alonea has designated Winterdon as its capital city, Chief Maya has just been declared ruler of Alonea in an international press conference, and Snowtianity has been named as Alonea's national religion. Crime is totally unknown. Alonea's national animal is the Polar Bear and its national religion is Snowtianity.

Alonea is ranked 65,462^nd in the world and 3^rd in Glitterland for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 3,112.06 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
