The Kingdom of Winter Aura is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 16.409 billion Winter Aurans are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Glacier Cavern. The average income tax rate is 47.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Winter Auran economy, worth a remarkable 1,896 trillion Aurums a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 115,570 Aurums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Military funding has been stripped back, arguments about toilet seats being left up or down get surprisingly heated, ambitious "businessmen" use their children to sell and advertise their products, and economic output is rising as the chronically depressed are persuaded not to burden society. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Winter Aura's national animal is the Polar Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Whatever.
Winter Aura is ranked 39,967th in the world and 482nd in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 77.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
