The Democratic States of Airday is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.75 billion Ardyans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pacolia. The average income tax rate is 70.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ardyan economy, worth 440 trillion Ardas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 92,832 Ardas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's normal to start working life with crippling financial debt, the Supreme Court vehemently protects civil rights and the right to privacy, parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend, and the nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Airday's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Airday is ranked 36,326^th in the world and 164^th in 10000 Islands for Highest Drug Use, scoring 103.4 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
