The Dictatorship of The Peoples Republic Of Aipotu is a massive, safe nation, ruled by President Atlas with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.445 billion Aipotutonions are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Topi. The average income tax rate is 74.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Peoples Republic Of Aipotuan economy, worth 202 trillion Æthers a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,826 Æthers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, the police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, and members of the government all have oddly similar anecdotes about their childhoods. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Peoples Republic Of Aipotu's national animal is the Human, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Evangelical Catholicism.

The Peoples Republic Of Aipotu is ranked 323,098^th in the world and 4,639^th in the Rejected Realms for Smartest Citizens, with 8.48 quips per hour.
