“Rationality Above All”

The Sleepy Backwater of Anbrig is a massive, safe nation, notable for its parental licensing program. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 1.434 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The government's religious works are headed by a New Age guru, abortions are routinely performed in Anbrig's hospitals, euthanasia is legal, and the nation refuses to provide international aid. Crime is totally unknown. Anbrig's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the lir.

Anbrig is ranked 3rd in the region and 52,513th in the world for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry.
