“This Angel is Fat!”

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

The United States of Fat Angel is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Prince Pudge with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 13.56 billion Fat Angelians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 77.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fat Angelian economy, worth a remarkable 1,465 trillion duckets 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 108,054 duckets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, kids are taught in schools to argue with their parents, diplomatic fallout tends to be much more dangerous than radioactive fallout, and motivational posters send motorists positive vibes in high-risk areas. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fat Angel's national animal is the howler monkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fat Angel is ranked 269,377^th in the world and 9,766^th in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring -238.48 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
