The Dictatorship of Azealand Isle is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Lord Azizul with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and lack of airports. The compassionate, humorless, devout population of 4.321 billion Azealand Islanders are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Azealand Dungeon. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Azealand Islean economy, worth 576 trillion Azealand Dollars 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 led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 133,451 Azealand Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

The holiest shrine in Sobekism is on another world, political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions, lip-readers are often left perplexed by political rallies, and stolen Reuben sandwiches are met with detailed and thorough police investigations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Azealand Isle's national animal is the Saltwater crocodile, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Sobekism.

Azealand Isle is ranked 271,873rd in the world and 4,757th in The East Pacific for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -10 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
