The Changing State of AnkoKurama is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Hawke with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, parental licensing program, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 30.232 billion AnkoKuramen are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stargazer. The average income tax rate is 1.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient AnkoKuraman economy, worth a remarkable 3,721 trillion Starlights a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 123,085 Starlights, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The tomato-covered corpses that decorate the nation's cities are a favourite amongst morbid tourists, trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy, nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, and strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AnkoKurama's national animal is the Tiny Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Anonymous.

AnkoKurama is ranked 47,023rd in the world and 2nd in Oketoh for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,127.41 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
