The Allied States of Azaleastan is a very large, genial nation, notable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 110 million Azaleastanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 33.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Azaleastanian economy, worth 4.17 trillion Azaleams a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,890 Azaleams, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government employees have reverted to carrier pigeon due to never-ending virus scans, there is a heavy social stigma attached to e-cigarettes, some are born loving old plays and some have old plays thrust upon them, and artists are pillars of society. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azaleastan's national animal is the Rakali, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Azaleastan is ranked 211,262^nd in the world and 4,017^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 33.47 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
