The Confederacy of Afinnaus is a very large, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The democratic population of 274 million Afinausians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government prioritizes Healthcare, with Defense, Industry, and Spirituality also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barralabi. The average income tax rate is 38.7%.

The Afinnausian economy, worth 13.5 trillion afinnian trannes 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 a slick, highly efficient black market in Gambling, Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. 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 49,437 afinnian trannes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Children are strong-armed by police into eating their greens, all guns must be registered, most of the nation's wealthy aristocrats are dentists, and Afinnaus has designated Barralabi as its capital city. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Afinnaus's national animal is the squirrel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Afinnaus is ranked 222,134th in the world and 2,884th in The North Pacific for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 42 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
