The Community of Aegeum is a small, orderly nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 36 million Aegeans 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 large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 46.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Aegean economy, worth 1.88 trillion neons a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 52,281 neons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens praise the weeds that overwhelm their narrow vegetable realm, the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, government programs are less "written" and more "plagiarised", and politicians accepting drinks in bars are executed for taking bribes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aegeum's national animal is the Aegean goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Aegeum is ranked 154,585^th in the world and 2,204^th in the West Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 8.62 flags saluted per person per day.
