The Federation of Alasia Baterrippedo is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Red Skull with an even hand, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, daily referendums, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 11.33 billion Alasia Baterrippedoans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt, moralistic government prioritizes Administration, although Law & Order, Industry, and Defense are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hydra. The average income tax rate is 71.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Alasia Baterrippedoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,959 trillion florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Retail, Soda Sales, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 172,924 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

There is a 'turn around' sign at every border entrance, screenwriters and actors seem to be in short supply these days, ex-royals are being greeted by a whole new set of gestures, and dining out often involves tigers on the plate no matter what you order. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alasia Baterrippedo's national animal is the tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Hydra.

Alasia Baterrippedo is ranked 280,877th in the world and 6th in HYDRA Command for Most Beautiful Environments, with 5.5 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
