The Community of Amizadonia is a very large, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 154 million Amizadonians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 83.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Amizadonian economy, worth 6.39 trillion Social Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 41,498 Social Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leader has promised 'power to the puppies', it is believed that belligerence is a passing phase foreign leaders will soon outgrow, octogenarian swimsuit models insist that they've still got it, and travelers are subject to extensive searches if beet stains are visible on their clothing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amizadonia's national animal is the Skunk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Amizadonia is ranked 61,054^th in the world and 1,839^th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 70 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
