The Fourth Internationale of The Workers United is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Premier Valery Sablin with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, keen interest in outer space, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.815 billion Andeans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Andea. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Andean economy, worth 745 trillion International Goods Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 128,185 International Goods Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Immigrants who carry knives on them are presumed to be chefs, death is nobody's business, commuters often break into synchronised para-para dancing for no reason at all, and a weakened police force struggles to maintain law and order. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Workers United's national animal is the Beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Multicultural.

The Workers United is ranked 16,511^th in the world and 1^st in The Southern Lands for Nudest, with 218.5 cheeks per square mile.
