The Completely Failed State of Angbhand is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Endymion with an iron fist, and notable for its parental licensing program, infamous sell-swords, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 20.054 billion Angbhandians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Industry, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sylvania. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Angbhandian economy, worth an astonishing 16,752 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 835,378 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Relations with Merovingia are as cold as Angbhand's high-security cell blocks, children play a simplified version of hopscotch, the banshee wail foretells skies of death, and caps with skulls on them are the height of fashion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Angbhand's national animal is the worg, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Angbhand is ranked 286,216th in the world and 1,463rd in the Plains of Perdition for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.02 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
