The Confederacy of Andropolia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Most Supreme Magnificent Overlord with an even hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, absence of drug laws, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 14.734 billion Andropolians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is dominated by the Department of Education, with Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.7%.
The very strong Andropolian economy, worth a remarkable 1,027 trillion Amples a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Average income is 69,723 Amples, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 325,620 per year while the poor average 8,932, a ratio of 36.5 to 1.
Handling people's data is proving an immersive experience, hit and run driving is no longer a crime - it's the national sport, claiming to have performed the Heimlich Maneuver is a popular defense for assault charges, and all tariffs have been abolished. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Andropolia's national animal is the Penguin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Andropolia is ranked 297,527th in the world and 5,868th in the South Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 46 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
