The Theocracy of Azorius Bantus is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Azor with an even hand, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, infamous sell-swords, and public floggings. The compassionate, devout population of 5.957 billion Azorians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arcades. The average income tax rate is 97.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Azorius Bantusian economy, worth 812 trillion Gallions 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 Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 136,461 Gallions, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Urban graffiti is hand-calligraphed in perfectly kerned elegant fonts, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, adults pretending to be teenage girls claim to have wholesome motives, and the WhoTube comments section has gone strangely quiet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azorius Bantus's national animal is the Sphinx, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Anglicanism.

Azorius Bantus is ranked 305,162^nd in the world and 5,721^st in The North Pacific for Nudest, with 11.5 cheeks per square mile.
