The Order State of Aeto Boxto is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Aeton Priton with an iron fist, and renowned for its parental licensing program, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 5.914 billion Aetons are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Central Sector. The average income tax rate is 86.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Aeto Boxtoan economy, worth 957 trillion pissoes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 161,960 pissoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

The nation is under martial law, most foreigners can't name the leader of Aeto Boxto, notable individuals are granted land and titles, and talkative students are escorted from schools in second-hand prison buses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aeto Boxto's national animal is the bean, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Aeto Boxto is ranked 7,244^th in the world and 190^th in the Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 476.22 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
