The Federation of Alsion is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, sprawling nuclear power plants, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, cheerful population of 4.924 billion Alsionians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Als. The average income tax rate is 99.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Alsionian economy, worth 978 trillion Florins a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 198,808 Florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet, a shocking number of government bills get lost in committee, bargain hunters descend on disaster zones for a quick spot of grocery shopping, and this summer's chart-toppers sound almost the same as last year's. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alsion's national animal is the Wulf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Alsion is ranked 2,339^th in the world and 86^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 20,152.4 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
