The Watchfires of AZT is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, pith helmet sales, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 19.581 billion AZTians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid receives no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.1%.

The all-consuming AZTian economy, worth a remarkable 1,742 trillion $$s a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,984 $$s, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

The people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth, burial ceremonies have become as routinised as tax forms, drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, and the education system is being cleansed of all corporate influence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AZT's national animal is the laughing swordfish, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

AZT is ranked 87,723^rd in the world and 2^nd in Aztlan for Lowest Crime Rates, with 67.5 law-abiding acts per hour.
