The Colony of Aquarii 095 is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.67 billion Aquarii 095ians 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 large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 55.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Aquarii 095ian economy, worth 98.3 trillion stardusts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 26,784 stardusts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scientists are not permitted to ask questions, foreign leaders who don't applaud Leader's speeches are regarded as enemies of Aquarii 095, aggravated apostrophe abusers are admonished and assaulted, and hell hath no fury like an ocean scorned. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aquarii 095's national animal is the water-bearer.

Aquarii 095 is ranked 237,857th in the world and 9,508th in Lazarus for Nicest Citizens, with 9.76 average smiles per day.
