The Free Land of Anstrum is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.849 billion Anstrumites hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 70.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Anstrumian economy, worth 358 trillion labor notes 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Average income is 93,209 labor notes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The prevalence of circular logic frequently renders parliamentary observers dizzy, escalators are avoided at all costs, Leader's media campaigns take a hiatus around exam week, and leather-clad individuals can be seen walking their slaves in public parks. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Anstrum's national animal is the Boar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Anstrum is ranked 207,227^th in the world and 8,492^nd in Osiris for Most Corrupt Governments, with 1.11 kickbacks per hour.
