The Republic of Aerendas

“Promoveo, Ingredere Nunquam”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Republic of Aerendas is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its parental licensing program, infamous sell-swords, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 312 million Aerendasians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 23.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Aerendasian economy, worth 20.9 trillion Doemas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,946 Doemas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee, voter turnout for the election of the Junior Assistant for Non-Digital Media Strategies has been unsurprisingly low, immigrants who don't like the taste of Aerendasian Turnip Chips are immediately deported, and the state auctions off combat drones to fund war reparations. Crime is totally unknown. Aerendas's national animal is the Aerendasian Sprawl Tailed Nightingale, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Aerendas is ranked 71,379^th in the world and 1,466^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 107.69 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
