The People's Republic of New Aierlund is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by High Delegate Jack Vader with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.751 billion Aierians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Xenia. The average income tax rate is 62.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Aierian economy, worth 129 trillion Aierian dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 74,231 Aierian dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

NPCs in MMORPGs regularly interrupt cutscenes with OOC reminders that they aren't real people, the volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, news headlines suggest that High Delegate Jack Vader has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, and the government loves seeing the little people fight. Crime is totally unknown. New Aierlund's national animal is the Quokka, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

New Aierlund is ranked 40,257^th in the world and 522^nd in 10000 Islands for Healthiest Citizens, with 6.66 bananas ingested per day.
