The Imperial State of Angvar is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Empress Katharina II with an iron fist, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, parental licensing program, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.2 billion Angvarians 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mordegard. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Angvarian economy, worth a remarkable 3,939 trillion Angvarian pounds 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, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. 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 428,161 Angvarian pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', hospitals have poor data security but send lots of bodies to be encrypted, aid workers deliver life-saving supplies with a devious gleam in their eyes, and phone taps are frequently carried out by the police. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Angvar's national animal is the carrion crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Miraculism.

Angvar is ranked 947^th in the world and 1^st in The League for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 16,009.13 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
