The Co-Operative Democracy of Aumest is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Chairman Boe Lahrrs with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 9.924 billion Aumestes hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Clismen. The average income tax rate is 57.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aumesten economy, worth a remarkable 1,644 trillion Pilas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 165,661 Pilas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High school boys are required to pass vigorous self-mastery and sensitivity training to graduate, raver DJ XStacy holds multiple medical degrees in chillaxing, Aumest's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, and the government is washing its hands of alleged corruption. Crime is totally unknown. Aumest's national animal is the Asulophian Tailcatcher, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Aakyo Iogeng.

Aumest is ranked 246,546^th in the world and 2,811^th in the South Pacific for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,904.11 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
