The Republic of Aevangelia is a small, socially progressive nation, renowned for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 7 million are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whoever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Law & Order and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 68%, and even higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Trout Farming.

Voting is voluntary, cars are banned, euthanasia is legal, and the government is avowedly atheist. Crime is totally unknown. Aevangelia's national animal is the Zebu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the dollar.

Aevangelia is ranked 1950th in the region and 34,175th in the world for Most Politically Apathetic Citizens.
