The Auphelia Loving Kleptocracy of Volaworand is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Acting Prime Minister Alan Duncan with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, otherworldly petting zoo, and national health service. The compassionate, hard-working population of 13.605 billion Volaworandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rothera. The average income tax rate is 49.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Volaworandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,379 trillion pound sterlings a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 248,368 pound sterlings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Volaworandian soldiers are assured their new ray-guns will finally power up after the next round of ominous chanting, it is often said that only Acting Prime Minister Alan Duncan could bring down Dàguó, jokes told in elementary school often come back to haunt politicians, and many mayors are barely in office before being kicked out for minor parking violations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Volaworand's national animal is the chinstrap penguin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Volaworand is ranked 381st in the world and 11th in the South Pacific for Most Secular, with 99.24 Atheism Rate.
