The Democratic Republic of Andaler is a mid-sized, pleasant nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 81 million Andalerians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 25.9%.

The Andalerian economy, worth 3.45 trillion Orsters a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Soda Sales, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 42,653 Orsters, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Andaler's national animal is the sheep.

Andaler is ranked 141,498^th in the world and 5^th in Pisces for Safest, scoring 65.95 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
