The Borderlands of AngelStitch is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Violet with an iron fist, and remarkable for its smutty television, aversion to nipples, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 3.46 billion AngelStitchians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Odonhull. The average income tax rate is 54.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient AngelStitchian economy, worth 391 trillion Euros 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 a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. 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 an impressive 113,033 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

There's a bright dawn ahead for AngelStitch, the military is recruiting war criminals to join its weapons research teams, the government confiscates candy from babies for 'the greater good' of the nation, and new AngelStitchian taxis are fitted with server racks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AngelStitch's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Empress of Mankind.

AngelStitch is ranked 20,619^th in the world and 51^st in The League for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 8,604.76 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
