The Republic of Andsed is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President Grant Shalka with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 15.737 billion Andsedians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andsedia. The average income tax rate is 91.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Andsedian economy, worth a remarkable 2,712 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 172,363 Andsoids, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no 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 17,161^st in the world and 2^nd in Alyr for Highest Average Incomes, with 172,363.14 Standard Monetary Units.
