The Lunar Colonies of Aanova is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Lord Duke Wayne with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, absence of drug laws, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 9.407 billion Aanovans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aanoviia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.9%.

The strong Aanovan economy, worth 528 trillion topaz rings a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 56,151 topaz rings, with the richest citizens earning 6.2 times as much as the poorest.

Nuclear warheads are frequently launched into space as a warning to invading meteoroids, cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, business is adjusting to new gender equality policies in the workplace, and Aanova has been greatly criticised for its isolationist policies. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aanova's national animal is the Wolverine, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Gnostic Alchemy.

Aanova is ranked 63,091^st in the world and 21^st in Mercenary Lands for Most Stationary, with 471.15870540268 days.
