The Republic of Aihon is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by James with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 17.424 billion Aihonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nieuwe Opstandsstad. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Aihonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,628 trillion Jeens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 150,859 Jeens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Most believe 'tis better to give than to receive, most households' childcare costs are higher than their mortgage payments, third party candidates are now gaining some representation in Parliament, and the media seems excessively interested in what James is wearing this season. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aihon's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Aihon is ranked 5,390^th in the world and 141^st in The East Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 201.74 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
