The Republic of Andsed is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Grant Shalka with a fair hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, sprawling nuclear power plants, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 14.406 billion Andsedians 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 medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andsedia. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Andsedian economy, worth a remarkable 2,525 trillion Andsoids a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 175,279 Andsoids, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security, Andsed's soft-touch approach to diplomacy has made it known as the 'push-over' of the region, and teenagers claim that morning paper rounds are performance art. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Andsed's national animal is the Emerald Eyed Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

Andsed is ranked 7,868^th in the world and 3^rd in Alyr for Lowest Crime Rates, with 105.87 law-abiding acts per hour.
