The Federation of Aelyria is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Ezekiel with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, otherworldly petting zoo, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 29.97 billion Aelyrians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, although Industry, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lyonesse. The average income tax rate is 1.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aelyrian economy, worth an astonishing 11,120 trillion sapphires a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 371,044 sapphires, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pawn shop reality shows dominate basic cable, government policy is dictated by Christianity, the phrase 'spreading like wildfire' is no longer in the public lexicon, and people can't decide between preserving forests and buying print copies of 'Dogman Versus The Giggler'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Aelyria's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Aelyria is ranked 292,858^th in the world and 11,362^nd in Balder for Most Primitive, scoring -1121.63 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
