The Confederacy of Angladaster is a small, socially progressive nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 26 million Angladasterians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 7.5%.

The Angladasterian economy, worth 1.22 trillion florins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Trout Farming, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 47,105 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, military spending recently hit a new high, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and bug burgers are extra crunchy. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Angladaster's national animal is the parrot.

Angladaster is ranked 36,585^th in the world and 96^th in Horizon for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,274.68 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
