The Borderlands of Ang Worspar is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Führer kravinski with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, vat-grown people, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.397 billion Worsparians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Darvoian highland. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 90.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Worsparian economy, worth 537 trillion Egrits 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. 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 amazing 224,356 Egrits, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Serial killers are the country's biggest import, concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas", the nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas, and any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ang Worspar's national animal is the Galothwitch, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Order of Malkrion.

Ang Worspar is ranked 271,833rd in the world and 1,368th in Europe for Safest, scoring 9.2 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
