The Former Colonial Empire of Anglost is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by King William IV with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.979 billion Anglostians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sunrisedon. The average income tax rate is 24.6%.

The Anglostian economy, worth 138 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 46,598 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Government critics have noticed a lot of new neighbors with expensive surveillance equipment in their garages, the government claims that King William IV's political enemies literally take candy from babies, the government operates on a policy of compliance through intimidation, and the nation is regarded as a paragon of democracy. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Anglost's national animal is the Tea, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Sunrisism.

Anglost is ranked 242,301^st in the world and 4,007^th in The East Pacific for Most Extreme, scoring 11.3 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
