The Federal Republic of Aigania is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Chancellor Adriano Arthur with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, soft-spoken computers, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 33.425 billion Aiganians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of El Progreso. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Aiganian economy, worth an astonishing 18,604 trillion Points a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is a breathtaking 556,595 Points, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All animals are equal but some are more equal than others, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, a plague of zealots has been unleashed on the streets of El Progreso, and atheist missionaries spread doubt overseas. Crime is totally unknown. Aigania's national animal is the Kraken, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Aiganiaism.

Aigania is ranked 1,060^th in the world and 80^th in Lazarus for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 7,521.91 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
