The Interuniversal Civilization of Aivintis is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Theondume with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, enslaved workforce, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 11.209 billion Aivintians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greater Asluagh. The average income tax rate is 67.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aivintian economy, worth a remarkable 1,297 trillion crowns a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 115,763 crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Children spend all morning taking out a comma and all afternoon putting it back in again, turning eighteen is often referred to as the 'Age of Aquarius', the government response to disaster victims starving for bread is "let them eat stale cake", and adult magazines are having a sales resurgence as internet anonymity disappears. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aivintis's national animal is the Wolfabuk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Dievinism.

Aivintis is ranked 224,712^th in the world and 4,500^th in The East Pacific for Safest, scoring 27.26 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
