The Republic of Anchors Islands is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Nicolaus Copernicus with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, otherworldly petting zoo, and smutty television. The compassionate, hard-working population of 1.359 billion Anchors Islandsians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anchors City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 49.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Anchors Islandsian economy, worth 183 trillion Anchors a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 135,353 Anchors, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 537,928 per year while the poor average 22,970, a ratio of 23.4 to 1.

Armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough, East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', 'Abstinence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder' is a common school motto, and calling tech support mid-shootout is a common occurrence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Anchors Islands's national animal is the Starfish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Anchors Islands is ranked 301,821st in the world and 4,924th in the South Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -361.02 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
