The Sultanate of Anastopoulistan is a huge, orderly nation, ruled by Omnipotent Omnipresent and Omniscient with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, public floggings, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 875 million Anastopoulians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Underworld. The average income tax rate is 40.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Anastopoulistanian economy, worth 97.0 trillion Death Coins 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. 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 110,826 Death Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children spend all morning taking out a comma and all afternoon putting it back in again, Anastopoulistan is increasingly belligerent on the international stage, children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces, and auditors are gutting every governmental department. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Anastopoulistan's national animal is the snake, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Anastopoulistan is ranked 129,998th in the world and 548th in Europeia for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 40.41 Effective Tax Rate.
