The Technate of Animeland is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Technocratic Party Of Animeland with a fair hand, and remarkable for its national health service, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.911 billion Animelandeans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Tokyo Urbanate. The average income tax rate is 82.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Animelandian economy, worth 501 trillion Energy Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 102,211 Energy Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Quiet professionalism has returned to the nation's armed forces, scavengers with burlap sacks and shovels skulk around graveyards, holidaymakers sleep curled up on the floor as hotel beds are replaced with oversized bookcases, and faking deafness is the only way to guarantee a holiday in the nation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Animeland's national animal is the Snow Monkey, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Shinto.
Animeland is ranked 244,911th in the world and 179th in Africa for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -3.46 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
