The Completely Failed State of Angbhand is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Endymion with an iron fist, and remarkable for its closed borders, deadly medical pandemics, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 17.939 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 are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sylvania. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Angbhandian economy, worth an astonishing 14,472 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 806,785 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Complaining about Christmas music in October is a ho-ho-horrendous crime, twins move across the country to avoid being accused of the other's crimes, 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners, and bleach is the nation's most common pesticide. 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 24,586th in the world and 673rd in the Rejected Realms for Most Income Equality, scoring 75.63 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
