The Democratic Allied Republics of Extasia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Martial Nobel with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.226 billion Extasians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurasia. The average income tax rate is 71.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Extasian economy, worth 356 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 159,714 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The running costs of homeless shelters are so high that it would be cheaper to buy houses for the homeless, job satisfaction is a luxury many Extasians can't afford, there have been sightings of people walking around dressed in nothing but leopard-skin g-strings for 'religious reasons', and the silencing of dissent speaks volumes about the quality of Extasian democracy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Extasia's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Extasia is ranked 12,744^th in the world and 127^th in Europeia for Most Developed, scoring 89.37 on the Human Development Index.
