The Oligarchic Republic of Aedmon is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory gun ownership, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 30.844 billion Aedmonians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Education also on the agenda, while Welfare isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Etasmir. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.0%.

The very strong Aedmonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,938 trillion atoms a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. Average income is 62,845 atoms, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 203,110 per year while the poor average 14,695, a ratio of 13.8 to 1.

Corporate 'hostile takeovers' now involve ICBMs and main battle tanks, ARC has been named as Aedmon's national religion, criminals are thrown to the spotted dolphins to repay their debt to society, and the nation is reliant on the principle of mutually assured destruction to maintain its security. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aedmon's national animal is the spotted dolphin, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is ARC.

Aedmon is ranked 954th in the world and 3rd in The Cursed Continent of Lodoss for Most Stationary, with 4,793.66359872 days.
