The Kingdom of Ausvelt is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Taina Nurumi with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 13.346 billion Ausvelti are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Helsinki. The average income tax rate is 99.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Ausvelti economy, worth a remarkable 2,875 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 215,470 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations, board shorts have replaced board rooms, explicit slash fiction is repackaged for kindergarten kids as stories about friends cuddling friends, and sleep-deprived officials are known to collapse after late night revision for their examinations. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ausvelt's national animal is the Harp Seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Ausvelt is ranked 326,391^st in the world and 856^th in Europe for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -13.59 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
