The Empire of Alsakah is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Citizen with an iron fist, and renowned for its national health service, public floggings, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 6.072 billion Alsakans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Jorge. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Alsakahian economy, worth a remarkable 1,414 trillion Alashes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 232,949 Alashes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Newly synthesized elements' half-lives are a million times shorter than the time it takes to say their names, drill sergeants yell in the ears of bespectacled nerds in cybermilitary "reboot camps", Renaissance frescos are being chiselled off public walls, and Citizen's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alsakah's national animal is the squirrel, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Alsakah is ranked 5,029th in the world and 251st in Balder for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 15,084.79 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
