The Angelus Velocitas Eradicato of Project Independence is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Avakael with an even hand, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, avant-garde cinema, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 27.528 billion Project Independenceans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of AVE Command. The average income tax rate is 73.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Project Independencean economy, worth a remarkable 2,429 trillion Halicarnassuses a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,239 Halicarnassuses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", devotion to God is only skin-deep, marine biology students are shocked to discover that a whale is a mammal, and everyone has the equal opportunity to have their wallet stolen. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Project Independence's national animal is the White Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cruor.

Project Independence is ranked 114,292^nd in the world and 635^th in Ordo Imperialia for Most Corrupt Governments, with 8.84 kickbacks per hour.
