The Democratic Republic of Aeonic is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, free-roaming dinosaurs, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.757 billion Aeonicians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aeonician economy, worth 301 trillion Aeons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 109,381 Aeons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political spontaneity takes a lot of planning, Leader reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, late night talk show hosts are having a field day over Leader's questionably sane new coalition partners, and public intoxication has decreased ever since fraternities were banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aeonic's national animal is the Whale Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Aeonic is ranked 57,142^nd in the world and 41^st in Conch Kingdom for Most Extreme, scoring 30.02 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
