The Federal Republic of Aoncarpa is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Prime Minister Fabioseb with an iron fist, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, anti-smoking policies, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 9.682 billion Aoncarpans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arctic City. The average income tax rate is 33.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Aoncarpan economy, worth a remarkable 2,052 trillion Aoncarpan Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 211,960 Aoncarpan Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, withdrawal of support for drug addicts is leaving many with cold sweats, parents often ask to see a credit report before lending money to their own children, and the nation's soldiers are considered the best-dressed in The North Pacific. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aoncarpa's national animal is the Polar Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Aoncarpa is ranked 18,246^th in the world and 753^rd in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 295 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
