The Dictatorship of Aupathica is a very large, genial nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical population of 449 million Aupathicans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rococabana. The average income tax rate is 57.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Aupathican economy, worth 27.0 trillion Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,237 Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

People believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more, burglars are known for taking cash, socks, and other valuables, extraordinary tribunals try accused financial criminals, and destitute athletes are forced to train in the street. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aupathica's national animal is the Falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Aupathica is ranked 280,178^th in the world and 384^th in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 2,200.68 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
