The Republic of Aidiarnia is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its smutty television, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 297 million Aidiarnians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Lyon. The average income tax rate is 57.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Aidiarnian economy, worth 24.0 trillion dollarpounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 80,975 dollarpounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Gossip magazines have pictures of Leader sunbathing on the beach with political rivals, programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, tourists outnumber citizens two to one, and the poor are often seen pale and dizzy after selling their blood to make ends meet. Crime is totally unknown. Aidiarnia's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Aidiarnia is ranked 27,471^st in the world and 1,239^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,864.48 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
