The Federal Republic of Aneth is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 445 million Anethians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aneth City. The average income tax rate is 18.3%.

The all-consuming Anethian economy, worth 42.0 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is 94,358 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Children's bedrooms are often decorated with posters of successful accountants, whenever pilots have to bail out the government bails out their company, Anethian politicians are often described as having more style than substance, and the nation is known abroad mostly for its Parliamentary antics. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Aneth's national animal is the Phoenix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Aneth is ranked 43,655^th in the world and 1,431^st in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 165.84 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
