Antigony is a WA Delegate

The Bellyfloppin' Humdingers of Antigony is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 788 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Education, although Law & Order and Public Transport are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 94%, and even higher for the wealthy. A large private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Nudity is frowned upon, cheese has become the new icon of political dissent, the public health bureaucracy is wrapped in miles of red tape, and long arduous trials are held for the most trivial of offences. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Antigony's national animal is the chimpanzee, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Gemaco.

Antigony is ranked 10th in the region and 21,693rd in the world for Highest Police Ratios.
