The Colony of Aech Em is a titanic, socially progressive nation, renowned for its public floggings, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12.971 billion Aech Emians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Environment, with Defense, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.1%.

The thriving Aech Emian economy, worth 698 trillion Hyns a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is 53,867 Hyns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 188,677 per year while the poor average 11,166, a ratio of 16.9 to 1.

Cancer rates amongst the richest in society are inexplicably on the rise, at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to Leader's wardrobe, Leader has declared a weed sticking through a crack in the sidewalk to be the nation's newest green space, and a third of Aech Emians are e-certified CEOs. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Aech Em's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Aech Em is ranked 285,259^th in the world and 29^th in Shinka for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.71 kickbacks per hour.
