The Completely Failed State of Angbhand is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Endymion with an even hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 16.007 billion Angbhandians 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 relatively small, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sylvania. The average income tax rate is 4.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Angbhandian economy, worth a remarkable 8,465 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is a breathtaking 528,879 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

A nickname of "Doctor Death" probably indicates a decorated war hero, forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, if foreigners can hit a spittoon from five paces they get a free holiday to Angbhand, and twins move across the country to avoid being accused of the other's crimes. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Angbhand's national animal is the worg, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Angbhand is ranked 441st in the world and 13th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 11,883.32 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
