The Confederacy of Aaverat is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, ubiquitous missile silos, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 530 million Aaveratians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hemming City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.3%.

The powerhouse Aaveratian economy, worth 48.8 trillion Aaveratian dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 92,000 Aaveratian dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 282,492 per year while the poor average 23,171, a ratio of 12.2 to 1.

A proud mining community is considering a rebellion after the Capital officially renamed them 'District XII', military information leaks are **REDACTED** by **REDACTED** in **REDACTED**, the nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, and citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aaverat's national animal is the Atlantic Ghost Crab, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Aaverat is ranked 215,161st in the world and 862nd in Europe for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 105.02 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
