The Imperial State of the Crown of Angvar is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Empress Katharina II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.804 billion Angvarians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mordegard. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Angvarian economy, worth a remarkable 3,654 trillion Angvarian couronnes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 415,137 Angvarian couronnes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Requests to "pass the salt" are supported by tank divisions, the monarch frequently needs protecting from misfiring protection, shoppers have literally had their hands full since plastic bags were banned, and there is no such thing as an innocent fling in the Angvarian military. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Angvar's national animal is the common raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Miraculism.

Angvar is ranked 69,378^th in the world and 35^th in The League for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 41.69 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
