The Republic of AE2022 is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Aldbrook Pippin with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, deadly medical pandemics, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, hard-working population of 1.497 billion AEians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of CIS. The average income tax rate is 60.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient AE2022ian economy, worth 180 trillion Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 120,430 Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, psychiatrists that date patients are congratulated on their romantic conquests, laser-wielding robots are taking aim at human hearts, and skateboarding is considered a form of diplomacy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. AE2022's national animal is the Dog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Pippinism.

AE2022 is ranked 11,641^st in the world and 205^th in The North Pacific for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 10,200 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
