The Federal Republic of Aigania is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Chancellor Adriano Arthur with a fair hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, soft-spoken computers, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 37.025 billion Aiganians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. 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 22,592 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 610,190 Points, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Clerics are taught that silence is golden and duct tape is silver, nuclear warheads are frequently launched into space as a warning to invading meteoroids, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, and the nation threatens sanctions on islands only visible at low tide. Crime is totally unknown. Aigania's national animal is the Minotaur, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Aiganiaism.

Aigania is ranked 307,994^th in the world and 11,588^th in Lazarus for Fattest Citizens, with 0.8 Obesity Rate.
