The Kingdom of Auracia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Galaxy Hazelwood with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working, cynical population of 4.359 billion Auracians are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The tiny, liberal, well-organized government prioritizes Welfare, although Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Industry and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hazelwood. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.5%.

The strong Auracian economy, worth 268 trillion Rels a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 61,664 Rels, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.

The government has solemnly sworn not to look up other nations' internet browsing history if the favor is returned, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Hazelwood to enjoy their national art, treaties are taken to be mere rules of thumb, and childhood friends of Galaxy Hazelwood are living it large abroad at the taxpayers' expense. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Auracia's national animal is the Pink-Feathered Swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Auraeism.

Auracia is ranked 88,573rd in the world and 105th in Forest for Most Corrupt Governments, with 17.58 kickbacks per hour.
