The Land of Republic of Altai is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, frequent executions, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 1.454 billion Altaians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barnaul. The average income tax rate is 65.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Altaian economy, worth 166 trillion Ducats a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 114,777 Ducats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

Scavengers with burlap sacks and shovels skulk around graveyards, being able to unblock a u-bend pipe is considered a universally essential skill, all children's clothes come in only cream and off-white to prevent offense, and many friends and relatives of Leader have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republic of Altai's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Republic of Altai is ranked 49,313^th in the world and 107^th in Novaya Zemlya for Highest Average Incomes, with 114,777.61 Standard Monetary Units.
