The ENDORSE TO 150 of Aivintis is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Theondume with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 4.741 billion Aivintians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greater Aslough. The average income tax rate is 48.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Aivintian economy, worth 531 trillion crowns a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 112,115 crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens applying for their first jobs face fierce competition from the homeless, young soldiers are shocked to discover there are no 'safe spaces' on a battlefield, search and rescue forces now accept cheques and all major credit cards, and there's a bright dawn ahead for Aivintis. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aivintis's national animal is the Wolfabuk and its national religion is Dievinism.

Aivintis is ranked 186,086^th in the world and 6,483^rd in The East Pacific for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring -3.92 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
