The Free Corporation of Azklabau is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by President-Director Henry Arnold with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, free-roaming dinosaurs, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 3.457 billion Azklabans enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, although Defense is also considered important, while Administration and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ameslari. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Azklaban economy, worth 723 trillion A$ Azklan Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 209,360 A$ Azklan Dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,195,072 per year while the poor average 17,776, a ratio of 67.2 to 1.

Public intoxication has decreased ever since fraternities were banned, the government is outsourcing itself, Azklabans no longer find themselves bumping into their exes at family gatherings, and morale within the seismologist community has hit rock bottom. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Azklabau's national animal is the Muntjac, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Jakinduria Askatua.

Azklabau is ranked 331,374th in the world and 52nd in Philosophers for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -23.87 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
