The Sovereign Republic of Aeteros is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Alan Voras with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The democratic population of 5.469 billion Aeterosans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government prioritizes Healthcare, although Education, Administration, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aeternus. The average income tax rate is 52.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Aeterosan economy, worth 408 trillion Orans a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 74,717 Orans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, the tax agency is feared more than serial killers and terrorists, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', and Aeterosans have replaced bears in a popular idiom. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aeteros's national animal is the Octopus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Aeteros is ranked 63,122^nd in the world and 103^rd in The Western Isles for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.18 law-abiding acts per hour.
