The Armed Republic of Independent Aviation Consultants is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, infamous sell-swords, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 3.884 billion Independent Aviation Consultantsians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mena Arkansas. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Independent Aviation Consultantsian economy, worth 529 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 136,255 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 8.2 times as much as the poorest.

Recognizing the Independent Aviation Consultantsian flag qualifies you for citizenship, crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed, Leader's former secretary was last sighted on her new yacht, and the daily weather forecast often predicts light showers of debris. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Independent Aviation Consultants's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Independent Aviation Consultants is ranked 131,449^th in the world and 6,338^th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 62.6 law-abiding acts per hour.
