The Free Land of Kimaeus is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Tomas Quintal with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.576 billion Aeusians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of James. The average income tax rate is 81.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Aeusian economy, worth 224 trillion balls of yarn a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Average income is 87,144 balls of yarn, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

One can wake up in Kimaeus and have breakfast in Bigtopia, citizens are remarkably well involved in the political process, the children of Kimaeus are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence, and undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kimaeus's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kimaeus is ranked 61,259^th in the world and 775^th in the South Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 74.15 on the Human Development Index.
