The ★Red Anarchic States★ of Apaima is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by The Peoples' Liberation Committee with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 4.298 billion Apaimen are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Apaima City. The average income tax rate is 93.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Apaiman economy, worth 614 trillion Bits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 142,995 Bits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Unemployed judges can be found squatting in abandoned courthouses, one can wake up in Apaima and have breakfast in Bigtopia, AI management double books government press conferences, and a breakdown in Westphalian sovereignty has left political scientists dazed and confused. Crime is totally unknown. Apaima's national animal is the Vampire Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Apaima is ranked 47,933rd in the world and 41st in Aeternas for Safest, scoring 103.65 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
