The Holy Blue of Alsatian Island is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Richard Alnwick with a fair hand, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.022 billion Alsatians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Monmouth. The average income tax rate is 92.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Alsatian economy, worth a remarkable 1,773 trillion gold bars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 176,919 gold bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Old people living in plastic bubbles complain about a new type of social isolation, the military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, adults pretending to be teenage girls claim to have wholesome motives, and carpet bombing has decimated Brasilistan's landscape and population. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alsatian Island's national animal is the alsatian, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Alsatian Island is ranked 63,398^th in the world and 804^th in The East Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 26.18 flags saluted per person per day.
