The Republic of Aufna is a mammoth, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The democratic population of 5.918 billion Aufnans are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The medium-sized, moralistic, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 25.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Aufnan economy, worth 193 trillion rubledollars a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Cheese Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 32,777 rubledollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aufna's national animal is the hawk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Aufna is ranked 312,629^th in the world and 1^st in The boiling isles from toh for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -8.94 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
