The Republic of Angelical is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, pith helmet sales, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 8.811 billion Angelicalians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 60.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Angelicalian economy, worth a remarkable 1,438 trillion 9003s a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 163,205 9003s, with the richest citizens earning 6.9 times as much as the poorest.

Dealers go from pushing drugs to pushing up daisies, rural communities are all but disenfranchised as politicians focus all their attention on winning the deciding urban votes, the latest guided missile cruiser "Ship-1642" has received precisely zero column inches in the press, and the sick and dying are locked in their homes with a red "X" painted on the front door. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Angelical's national animal is the 9003, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Angelical is ranked 64,918^th in the world and 1,991^st in Osiris for Most Armed, with 1.29 weapons per person.
