The Gold Zombie Republic of Azar is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President M Pakka with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and frequent executions. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.014 billion Azarians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government prioritizes Administration, with Law & Order, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Otorio. The average income tax rate is 28.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Azarish economy, worth 105 trillion Gold Bars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 103,786 Gold Bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Diaper sales are up, the ruling party has a devil of a time keeping order in the ranks, the nation is automatically assumed to be the source of all unmarked weapons, and agriculture is heavily subsidized by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azar's national animal is the Leprechaun, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Azar is ranked 158,661^st in the world and 1,483^rd in the West Pacific for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 28.84 Effective Tax Rate.
