“Per Angusta Ad Augusta”

Overview • Factbook • Dispatches • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Republic of Antiyard is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 8.327 billion Antiyardians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caramba. The average income tax rate is 93.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Antiyardian economy, worth a remarkable 1,693 trillion Konigs a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 203,321 Konigs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People who stay late at the office often come home to find their own funeral being planned, international war crimes are good for business and business is booming, there's never enough space in space, and kissing cousins produce the heartiest babies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Antiyard's national animal is the Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Antiyard is ranked 9,025^th in the world and 469^th in The North Pacific for Most Secular, with 95.58 Atheism Rate.
