The Republic of Andsed is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by President Grant Shalka with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 19.882 billion Andsedians 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.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andsedia. The average income tax rate is 89.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Andsedian economy, worth a remarkable 3,445 trillion Andsoids a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 173,318 Andsoids, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security, Andsed's soft-touch approach to diplomacy has made it known as the 'push-over' of the region, and teenagers claim that morning paper rounds are performance art. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Andsed's national animal is the Emerald Eyed Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

Andsed is ranked 17,521^st in the world and 2^nd in Alyr for Highest Average Incomes, with 173,318.58 Standard Monetary Units.
