The Solemn Principality of Apulon is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.861 billion Apulonians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mayport. The average income tax rate is 61.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Apulonian economy, worth 311 trillion apols a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 167,642 apols, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Only vaccinated citizens may have free healthcare, the government is notorious for leaving citizens with almost nothing from their inheritance, government expenses are beyond compare, and citizens living in underground cities have developed a healthy green glow. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Apulon's national animal is the fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Eastern Orthodox Church.

Apulon is ranked 27,041^st in the world and 591^st in The East Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 84.69 law-abiding acts per hour.
