The Trickster God of Anansi is a mammoth, efficient nation, notable for its zero percent divorce rate, smutty television, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.522 billion Anansians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 74.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Anansian economy, worth a remarkable 1,256 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 167,007 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Riot police are stationed around paintings of violent protestors, drill sergeants yell in the ears of bespectacled nerds in cybermilitary "reboot camps", legislators toe the party line lest the Sergeant-at-Arms decide to conduct "truncheon practice" on the backbench, and supervisors in Anansi commonly tie bells on their necks to alert employees of their presence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Anansi's national animal is the leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Anansi is ranked 101,394^th in the world and 1^st in Onion Milk for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 43,254.97 Standard Monetary Units.
