The Theocracy of Aviran is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, devout population of 9 million Aviranians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 74.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The basket case Aviranian economy, worth 65.2 billion worms a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery and Cheese Exports. Average income is 7,245 worms, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, military spending recently hit a new high, and Harry Potter books are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aviran's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Aviran is ranked 170,442^nd in the world and 2,888^th in Ambition for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 476.38 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
