The Republic of -a-a-a- is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Violet with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, disturbing lack of elderly people, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.537 billion -a-a-a-ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Violet City. The average income tax rate is 40.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient -a-a-a-ian economy, worth 63.4 trillion Monies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,262 Monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Only 'organics' are permitted to be citizens, citizens with artificial limbs are forbidden to serve as beauty pageant judges, disadvantaged neighbourhoods have become no-go areas after sundown, and a baby's first breath is also a baby's first felony. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -a-a-a-'s national animal is the Beetle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Violetism.

-a-a-a- is ranked 155,851^st in the world and 1,955^th in the West Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 337.18 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
