The Unicorns have taken over of Aerilia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Purple Unicorn with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 8.129 billion Aerilians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Unicorn City. The average income tax rate is 27.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Aerilian economy, worth a remarkable 2,168 trillion Hoofs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 266,799 Hoofs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks, people who stay late at the office often come home to find their own funeral being planned, mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, and the military is slashing spending on conventional arms and diverting it to spending on prosthetic arms. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Aerilia's national animal is the Unicorn, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Violet.

Aerilia is ranked 220,141^st in the world and 8,084^th in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -436.76 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
