The Republic of Aihon is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by James with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 17.328 billion Aihonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nieuwe Opstandsstad. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Aihonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,612 trillion Jeens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 150,781 Jeens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Most believe 'tis better to give than to receive, most households' childcare costs are higher than their mortgage payments, third party candidates are now gaining some representation in Parliament, and the media seems excessively interested in what James is wearing this season. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aihon's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Aihon is ranked 8,138^th in the world and 198^th in The East Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 105.16 law-abiding acts per hour.
