The Empire of Aaron T Beck is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its soft-spoken computers, ritual sacrifices, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 11.865 billion Aaron T Beckians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 29.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Aaron T Beckian economy, worth 427 trillion Shiny Green Things a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 35,997 Shiny Green Things, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

On hunt days the unpleasant peasant runs in lieu of the pheasant, schoolboys who turn to watch pretty girls go by are given detention, pet loving officers arrest citizens who don't give their dogs enough biscuits, and taxi drivers seem less xenophobic these days. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aaron T Beck's national animal is the Giraffe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Aaron T Beck is ranked 91,181st in the world and 36th in The Gallery for Most Stationary, with 497.31032061008 days.
