The Rogue Nation of Aristokuvaa is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Catra with an iron fist, and renowned for its vat-grown people, prohibition of alcohol, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 18.383 billion Aristokuvaans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aristokuvaa. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Aristokuvaan economy, worth a remarkable 6,379 trillion Crystalis 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 Information Technology, Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. 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 amazing 347,045 Crystalis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Catra can finally stop kneading the dough and start rolling in it instead, escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, there's nothing special about Catra, and flight attendants rip down curtains with revolutionary fervor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aristokuvaa's national animal is the Leviathan, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Aristokuvaa is ranked 4,174th in the world and 1st in Aristokuvaa for Lowest Crime Rates, with 120.86 law-abiding acts per hour.
