The Commonwealth of Azodia is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.349 billion Azodians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 55.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Azodian economy, worth 292 trillion Zdars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,604 Zdars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are deployed to barren deserts to protect small territorial claims, naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure, government buildings are being cleansed of anything that might have racist connotations, and politicians accost strangers in the street to ask their problems. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Azodia's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Azodia is ranked 12,134^th in the world and 527^th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 111 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
