The Armed Corporations of Aurora Islands is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by General John Westmoreland with an even hand, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, digital currency, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 27.913 billion Auroraians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurora City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Auroraian economy, worth an astonishing 25,531 trillion golden dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is a breathtaking 914,683 golden dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 8,567,316 per year while the poor average 8,229, a ratio of 1,041 to 1.

Insanely good theatre productions face government censorship, torture is commonly used to extract information from suspected criminals, the hills are alive with the sound of ringtones, and citizens are arrested for naturally producing proteins. Crime is totally unknown. Aurora Islands's national animal is the golden hummingbird, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Aurora Islands is ranked 232,926^th in the world and 160^th in Commonwealth of Liberty for Most Devout, with 1.4 Prayers Per Hour.
