The United Nations of Anayla is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by its leader with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 10.123 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Defence, although Law & Order and Education are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cirantine. The average income tax rate is 83%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Information Technology and Cheese Exports.

Anayla's army is full of two-metre tall super-soldiers, newborns are being raised as mindless killing machines, people regularly disappear off the streets and all evidence of them is destroyed, and UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Anayla's national animal is the tiger, and its currency is the Credit.

Anayla is ranked 4th in Halo and 80,411th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
