The Royal Olympian Empire of Andanavia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by High Chancellor Chrisjen Avasarala with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.572 billion Andanavians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 75.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Andanavian economy, worth 294 trillion Golds a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,540 Golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

History textbook pages are used as impromptu tissues by distraught students, the universal wage level is set by dividing GDP by the number of citizens, surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods, and orthopaedics patients often have a bounce in their step. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Andanavia's national animal is the leprechaun, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Andanavia is ranked 15,868^th in the world and 900^th in The North Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 127.19 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
